OK....I'll go ahead and be the one to post it
The only people who can fix Baltimore are the people who live there. When are they going to take some responsibility for themselves, their children, and their neighborhoods? And they are the ones who elect moron race-baiting crooks like Cummings. As long as they do nothing but whine that somebody has to come help them, the situation will not get better.
Bernie Sanders was bemoaning the fact that half the people there are unemployed. Other than the horrible government schools, which is a legitimate complaint, the reason people don’t have jobs is that very few businesses want to operate in a high crime area where many potential employees lack basic math and language skills.
I worked at the Murphy Homes in Baltimore as a Public Assistance worker many years ago. I walked all over West Baltimore without challenge. That would not be possible today. The inner city has become angry and hate filled. It is a hopeless place of misery. Crime is rampant. Life is short and ugly. There are a few, very few, people making a difference in Baltimore. They are not in positions of leadership. Those who are in positions of responsibility seem to be either oblivious to the problems, overwhelmed by them, or convinced things are as good as they can get. There is one more attitude, that the white man is wholly to blame for everything wrong with the city. In fact these problems did not exist under white man leadership, at least no to the extent they do now. It is, in fact, black democrat leadership that has driven Baltimore into the cesspit where it now finds itself.
that would not be possible today.
I hate drugs and I especially hate weed.....people just are oblivious to what it does....
