We may be getting a better sense of why things have gone so completely off the rails in Charm City when it comes to their seemingly intractable murder and gang violence problem. The Baltimore Sun conducted an extensive interview
[Mosby and Dais] say they are overseeing crime-fighting in a different climate than six years ago, when the city experienced fewer than 200 homicides for the first time in decades. Both officials claimed those past gains were achieved using heavy-handed tactics that have been disavowed.
“There was a price to pay for” the drop below 200 homicides, a price “that manifested itself in April and May of 2015,” Davis said, referring to the uprising following the death of Freddie Gray. “I think the long view is that doing it the right way is doing it the hard way, and I think most Baltimoreans realize that the way forward is not always going to be easy.”
So let me get this straight. Under your watch the city is now on track to have more than 300 homicides for the third straight year. Six years ago the number was below 200. That’s still not great, but it’s fully one third less. And you’re saying that the “heavy-handed tactics” which achieved those levels have been disavowed and we won’t be returning to the past?

Yo dumbass....when you encourage anarchy you will get anarchy. Yeah you sure stuck it to “The Man”.
It’s even harder when you’re a disgusting cowardly pussy who betrays the citizenry and allows rioters to commit as much robbery, vandalism, assault, and arson as they want.
I read where geneticists say we will soon be customizing human embryos by engineering the DNA to add or delete certain characteristics.
Maybe they will be able to eliminate the ‘Whining Pussy Gene’ and the ‘Industrial Grade Stupid Gene’ from future democrats.
Mosby is great at fighting and (falsely) prosecuting police (ref the Freddie Gray fiasco) but not good at fighting and prosecuting criminals.
Now she says its tough.
Victims? Mostly blacks in poor black neighborhoods of Baltimore, WHERE SHE DOESN”T LIVE.
How about that (Baltimore)/Obama/Lynch consent decree handcuffing police that they signed onto just before Trump took office? How's that working?
It’s hard when you are sympathetic to the murderers and their motivations, yes.
For those who haven’t seen it “The Wire” is an amazing series about the drug scene in Baltimore—don’t know if it has changed much since it was made.
Baltimore is fighting the police rather than crime.
What LIB idiots...and incompetents.
95% of the murders are just goons murdering other goons before they can murder some other goon.
The last 5% is going to happen in Federal Hill or Mayberry at a similar rate.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
Sadly, the best and safest view of Baltimore is in one’s rear view mirror.
When you are selectively prosecuting criminals, it becomes extremely hard to reduce crime.

Yeah, and they came to California. Nazi Pelosi (nee D’Alessandro) was the daughter of the corrupt mayor of Baltimore, Thomas D’Alessandro who was, as I recall, indicted for political crimes. The apple never falls very fall from the tree.
S’bags are killing s’bags in BTown, so why should I care?
Apparently, she is willing to sacrifice about 100 lives a year, most of whom will be black, so she can continue her war against the police. How, by any stretch of the imagination, do these evil people get away with calling themselves “progressive”?
