[Charm City] Deadly month sees 35 killings
Baltimore Sun ^ | 5/25/15 | Luke Broadwater

Hours after Baltimore's mayor huddled with police officials to discuss the recent spike in violence, two more people were killed Monday — making May the city's deadliest month since 1999.

The two homicides increased this month's total to 35. There have been 108 homicides across the city this year.

"It's deplorable," said City Councilman William "Pete" Welch. "The shootings and killings are all over the city. I don't think any part of the city is immune to this. I've never seen anything like it."

Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake is "disheartened and frustrated by this continuing violence, particularly when you think about the progress that the city has made," said her spokesman, Howard Libit.

The mayor met for nearly two hours Sunday with Police Commissioner Anthony W. Batts and members of his command staff about adjustments police are making. "She is confident that the steps being taken by the Police Department will quell this latest uptick in violence," Libit said.

These people are so masked by political correctness that they can’t see something that is clearly right in front of their face.

Incest?

Isolation from the rest of the world, smaller genetic pool and a high number of children with unknown fathers= greater odds of incest.

Drive on by BPD, eyes straight ahead, nothing to see here. Move on to a part of town that appreciates your service, which very likely is a quiet part of town too.

Don’t black lives matter in Chicago? How many blacks were killed by whites? None? Shocking!! How many blacks were killed by blacks? All 12? Maybe a hispanic or two thrown in? More shocking.

The solution is simple, just like it is with ISIS.

All these people really need are good jobs and then they won't go around killing everybody. Besides, there is hardly an employer around that wouldn't be anxious and happy to hire them. While they are at it, they need to increase the minimum wage to a "living wage" so these folks can make an honest living and support their families.

Problem solved!

,,,,,,, Baltimore politicians are trying to prove that black lives really do not matter as they themselves are in total control of this mass genocide of their own race which includes a 70% abortion rate among blacks . .

When does Charm City become Death City? It will become a No Go Zone for any decent person of any color. Destroyed by Liberalism and race pandering into a city ran by and for the gangs.

The longer this goes on, and the completely non-alibied ongoing bloodbath that is Chicago, the better the election results in 2016. Thanks markomalley.

Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake is “disheartened and frustrated by this continuing violence, particularly when you think about the progress that the city has made,” said her spokesman, Howard Libit.

Does she not see any correlation between “Space to Destroy Property”...and Space To Destroy Lives?
