BALTIMORE —Amid an unrelenting streak of violence, Baltimore's mayor said current gun laws miss the mark.
The number of homicides in Baltimore reached 211 on Wednesday, matching the number for all of last year. The 211th homicide was recorded when police found the body of a man who was shot in a vacant house in the Penn-North neighborhood of west Baltimore, the same area hit by riots in April.
Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake's political career may depend on getting the violence under control. She gave credit Wednesday to city police officers because arrests are back up to a normal pace. She suggested that it doesn't matter that Maryland has some of the toughest gun laws on the books while other states don't.

Some leftists like Obama are bent on destroying this nation purposefully. Others, like this useful idiot, are simply stupid beyond all comprehension.
The war on freedom continues in Baltimore.
Mayor Mouth Breather
A statistical study of Baltimore and Detroit will prove to be interesting. You might call it “A Tale of Two Cities.’
Packing heat in Detroit: Motown residents answer police chief's call to arms
Affimative Action hire, Affirmative Action policies. Not that she has an original thought in her head, its all coming from the Odunga and his minions.
Probably all those confederate flags in the hood.
At least they are “free” to destroy if they want to.
Mayor Stephanie needs to be kicked out on her butt, maybe she can find a job with Revrunt Al inciting rioters nation wide.
How many has Planned Barrenhood killed in Baltimore this year?
Does the mayor know she governs a sh***y city with a poor government? Well, she does.
OMG - I was just going to say that.
Not that there's anything wrong with that. But she does look like she is on tranquilizers.
“...Baltimore’s mayor said current gun laws miss the mark. “
Yep, not a single criminal in the city has passed a background check before purchasing their weapon. Maybe they need to rewrite the “gun laws” to include criminals from the hood and government!!!!!!
The mayor should call in Al Sharpton and his fellow black racists, Sharpton, Jackson, Obozo, Holder and the left wing mediots on ABCNNBCBS to patrol the streets and keep the peace.
Of course, they can’t have a weapon.
This shows that Baltimore has two city governments.
There is one government on TV, and there is the real government.
DC broke 100 today.
Yay!!!!
Has Baltimore surpassed Detroit and Memphis yet?
Instead of “gun control”, maybe the mayor should institute some street control...some gang control...some thug control...
I live near Chicago. It’s a beautiful weekend so I’m betting on at least 30 shot and 4 dead. All of them in the usual neighborhoods of course.

The Baltimore street thugs who are committing the murders will rush to comply with every new gun control law. They will surely stand in line to register their current guns and
will rush to do background checks and gladly comply with new waiting periods when buying new guns.
Liberalism is a mental disease.
