It’s true, I used to live there.
Friends who taught at JHMS got out 25 years ago and said it was a mess then.
A once beautiful city.
Anne Tyler wrote about Baltimore, but one that is long gone.
Baltimore, in most districts, is a dangerous dump. It’s no advisable to have your car break down anywhere near downtown even in daylight.
Most people say that the ‘golden-era’ of Baltimore came to an end in the early 1970s...saying it was after the 1973 Baltimore Orioles season that things started to head south. Once the cocaine era of the early 1980s started....the speed downward just accelerated.
My GPS 2 months ago rerouted me through the rundown area of Baltimore. Row upon row of rundown, dilapidated buildings but with some renovations could be restored. DemoRats cause the ghettos.
I go into Baltimore on a regular basis. It is a dump and very dangerous.
Baltimore the east coast branch of Los Angeles democrats still doing their finest work.
I wouldn’t go to baltimore to throw up
These black Congressmen are phonies and should not be immune to criticism. They sold their souls to the liberals long ago. They have allowed the liberals to situate their genocidal abortion clinics in their neighborhoods. Thy allowed the liberals to herd their children into union controlled cesspools masquerading as schools. They live well and their people rot.
“Kids, taking in all this plight?”
By them covering up the problem, they are contributing to the problem.
There is a distinction between valid generalizations based on true and honest statistics (such as what insurance companies use) and racism. Decisions based on valid generalizations are rational and are necessary for survival and happiness.
I LOVE THIS PRESIDENT!!!!
Not afraid to fight like most of the other feckless RINO’s!!!!!!
Had family from Baltimore, actually South Chester Street, near Patterson Park. Wasn’t a bad block to live on, but go over 1 or 2 blocks and it was a sh!thole!!
Most of that city is a cr@p fest. Very dirty city!!
I really don’t care to go there ever again, really!

I was born in Maryland but have spent the last 45 years in Florida ... In the last 2 years I’ve been to Maryland at least 4 or 5 times... Baltimore is the product of outrageous amounts of longstanding corruption it’s corrosive and destructive and drags people into a life they can’t easily escape... reminds me of St. Louis vs East St. Louis or Miami-Dade vs Orlando but far worse.
The only people who can fix Baltimore are the people who live there. When are they going to take some responsibility for themselves, their children, and their neighborhoods? And they are the ones who elect moron race-baiting crooks like Cummings. As long as they do nothing but whine that somebody has to come help them, the situation will not get better.
Bernie Sanders was bemoaning the fact that half the people there are unemployed. Other than the horrible government schools, which is a legitimate complaint, the reason people don’t have jobs is that very few businesses want to operate in a high crime area where many potential employees lack basic math and language skills.
Just a few years ago the Baltimore Orioles played a baseball game to an empty stadium because the city could not guarantee the safety of the fans. Baseballs fan base is mostly white.
