Consistency, the hallmark of the professional.
Too many in poverty
No jobs
Failing schools
Out of control cops (racist too)
Infrastructure is crumbling
No big box stores, not enough pharmacies and liquor stores
Tell that to CVS and Rite Aid.
Not enough tourism too.
Oops, hope you understood my satire.
And it’s only June 8th!
Fasten your seat belts.
I once broke down on I95 (one the way home from DC) and had to WALK my Sporty down the ramp to a repair shop.
Getting my bike back involved a Pickup Truck and ten patch-wearing brethren from Boston.
I will NEVER forgive Baltimore.
Edison Highway? Singing “Come out my way, die on Edison Highway”, which was once the automotive industrial center of Baltimore (Chevy had a plant there, among other companies. I believe that most, if not all of them, are long gone).
So...am I to believe baltimore is no longer the “Charm City”? Note to self: cancel plans to spend a summer vacation with my family walking around that LIB-run hellhole.
Should we take up donations for an ammo airdrop? I’d hate to have the poor, suppressed
People not have all the tools they need to “succeed” /s
I have faith! I am going 56 KWB in June. At least one hot weekend and maybe info. on Freddie leaks out that infuriates the natives..
You’ld be able to tell with mine. Power braking.....
TO #28 - It is now known as “HARM CITY”, not “Charm City”.
One FR poster named it “BaltiMORGUE”. I think that is also very appropriate.
Philadelphia is now known as the “City of Bloody Love”
New York City has about 14 times the population of Baltimore. Even with crime zooming up in New York, they may well still have less murders than Baltimore this year.
In the last month only the most reckless criminals shot at their enemies. Nobody was sure that the police stepped aside. Now everyone knows that it's perfectly safe to shoot - and it may be even the best time to take care of business.
