The inevitable result will be groups like the NOI imposing Sharia “No Go Zones” in the inner cities, as in Europe.

Re> We want officers engaging folks at every level

Why not just have them sell drugs and reduce the crime rate and the middle man /s

To paraphrase Mensa candidate, Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, the police are simply giving those who wish to destroy and kill space to do that.

I had heard, that tourism in Baltimore was down, after the riots. The major tourist zone at the Inner Harbor isn’t too far from the bad neighborhoods, from what I’ve been told, and people were scared to go there.

I had also heard, that the tourist/convention business in Baltimore was taking a hit after the riots.

I would hate to be mayor or police chief in a place such as Baltimore. You face these no win situations. Let the criminal element have free reign, and you can damage major sectors of the economy, for example. I heard that some businesses in downtown Baltimore were seeking to relocate, after the riots. Their employees don’t feel safe, and/or have been crime victims.

And apparently, judging by their record, nobody wants to play for the Orioles.

If the police don’t have the support of the city office, they have to make the adjustments necessary to not be legally exposed.

I would absolutely do the same thing. Look straight ahead when in those neighborhoods that hate me and move on to areas that appreciate my work. Protect them and let the natives police themselves. Those areas that hate the cops can do without.

yep, the Orioles are having a tough season.

They have some no win situations of their own. One is being in a small market. Another is that they don’t have outlying areas to draw from. They are so close to both Washington and Philadelphia.

But the police force turned a blind eye to crimes being committed right in front of them.

Why bother?

Very predictable conclusion brought about by race hustlers, enabled by like minded media, going to the mike to accuse police picking on blacks. Meanwhile whites have the good sense to stay away from mostly black areas as crime soars. Tragic result is poor honest blacks do not have the resources to escape their neighborhoods, and are doomed by their “leaders”.

One known result is a recent spike in black hit and run victims. While these people walk within their own neighborhoods, cars speed along at 80mph with drivers knowing the po po have determined to not get involved. All the “dwb” claims have convinced the po po it isn’t worth the hassle they get from the media and black activists.

Sad. But, Democrats can’t stop doing what they have learned brings love from the media and keeps them in power.

Stay far, far away and watch.

What else did you expect.....? On the other hand police should not have free reign either as they have their fair share of bad apples. I realize that it is a fine line not always easy to follow and make the right judgement in a split second.

Fifty years ago LIFE or LOOK had an article on crime in which the police said they would not answer calls in the colored section of town. “Just N-——s cutting up.” was the claim. Their words, not mine.
