As violence fluctuated this summer in Baltimore, the recent week in September left at least 45 people shot throughout the city — 12 of them dead since last Sunday, according to Baltimore police data.

Baltimore police confirmed on Sunday that from Sept. 6 to Sept. 13, 33 people were injured in shootings and 12 others were killed. But the week had already started off rough, coming off of a violent Labor Day weekend after 12 people had been shot, two others being killed and one person who was fatally stabbed. The latest shooting occurred overnight, around 12:24 a.m. in 700 block of N. Montford Avenue, where a 20-year-old was struck in the back.

On Friday, the hearts of local elected officials and community members of the Coldstream-Homestead-Montebello neighborhood were shattered following the fatal shooting of a 14-year-old boy in their community just about 15 minutes before noon.

Apparently Black Lives Don't Matter to other blacks. Surely it is not "right wing extremists" shooting these black people, is it?

Any of them shot by a white cop? If so the NFL will put him on their unis.

Probably not, but it is still Trump's fault!

A pretty high number for Baltimore but not likely to be more than a standard deviation from the normal.

You are 700x more likely as a black man to be killed by another black man, than unarmed and at the hands of a police officer.

I wonder if the people of Baltimore have had enough room to destroy yet.

Just curious, I don’t really care anymore.

I just figure that when they have had enough, they will elect Republicans.

Of course, when they finally have had enough to vote Republican, the people who count the votes will probably not have had enough.

1. That was my IMMEDIATE thought. Thanks, Gov.

2. Also the abortion rate among black females is disproportionately high. Since birth control is free I can't imagine WHY black females WOULD become pregnant unless they wanted a baby.

3. The incarceration rate for black males is also disproportionately high.

WHY?

Why don't the Oriental Asians, Indian Asians, Semitic peoples (Arabs), sub-Saharan Africans or whites have those same 1, 2, and 3 rates? Why just the American blacks?

What do you think, Gov?

I used to travel all over the country for work. Went to Baltimore a lot 15-20 years ago. It was by far the worst city I ever went to as far as degenerated hoods and crime. Shocking how fast the landscape changed from John Hopkins to the surrounding areas. Worse then Chicago or Detroit IMO, although it has been a lot of years so maybe others are worse now.

Laura Ingraham has had on Kim Klacik the Black Republican candidate for Congressman from Baltimore. She is an amazing black woman who speaks truth to power.

This campaign ad is devastating and rakes the Democrats over the coals:

Black Lives Don't Matter To Democrats

This is all the fault of “the availability of guns” to rural and suburban people in nearby Pennsylvania. /sarcasm

I have seen that add. She is impressive.

I just hope that the add has become viral in her district.

Looks to me that Baltimore wants to enter the big leagues, the Chicago vs NYC shootathon competition.
