Missed that one, thank you. Then again, there are so many others, why waste our time with this incorrigible charlatan?

I got out of Baltimore in 1966 but we had a family store there until we closed it in 1987.

I grew up not far from Mondawmin Mall. Saw it being built. Once the blacks moved up from the inner city, it became like the Wild West for a while. Also one of the worst high schools in the city was not far away. Plenty of “brothers” to stir up things, and did.

The hardworking, decent black professionals moved out Liberty Heights/Liberty Road from the area in which some of the riots are taking place now (Penn. and North Ave, where my late grandmother had a store during the depression. No trouble back then. Jews, Christians, whites and blacks got along a lot better back then. My grandfather hired a young black teenage in 1938 and he stayed with us until we closed the store in 1987. He even attended my Bar Mitzvah and my son’s Bris. Things were different back then.

Even the Democrat mayors (of whom I knew one and my mother was on another’s cultural/arts commission), were decent people. Unfortunately black mayor Curt Schmoke, the great “black hope” of the 1970’s, gt compromised by the black power machines and caved in to them. It was downhill from the, despite a couple of white mayors trying to stem the slide.

In fact, it was Nancy Pelosi’s brother (D’Allesandro III), who let the black rioters go unchallenged in the Jewish small business sections of East Baltimore. Lombard Street, next to the Italian section (and right down the block from where Nancy and my mother were born), was hit, as were many isolated Jewish small businesses who actually had a very proud record of hiring black workers when other white businesses did not.

Police and Fire Intelligence units back in 1968, and now, had information on who the outside (and inside) agitators and rioters were, but were not allowed to interfere with them, even if they were from out of state (Cops got their license plate numbers).

On one occasion, I worked with the Baltimore CID on a murder case, and with other beat police on several other crimes. These guys knew what was going on in their communities but the Democrats caved into the black political machines out of fear and for votes.

Look at what Baltimore is now. Fear and a gun to her head forced my sister out of Bolton Hill (her neighbor was strangled to death and her apartment was burgled by a DC-based professional criminal who stayed with his aunt up on North Avenue).

The last white mayor of Baltimore was Marxist O’Malley. Looks like his chickens have come home to roost. The new black mayor, another woman (one is in jail), has turned out to be a weak sister and has literally turned the streets of the city over to small but organized gangs of black radicals and criminals (some in training).

Gee, just like DC back in the 60’s. I was there at the beginning. Watched it burn and nothing was done to stop it, because LBJ put commie Ramsey Clark (AG) in charge. He won’t even let the soldiers on duty put live ammo in their rifles. Today, Clark is a hardcore communist supporter of the Workers World Party (a Stalinist, No. Korea-supporting group).

Lots of stories about both cities. Mayor Marion Barry (aka “Mayor for Life” or “Crook for Life”) is a hero to the blacks down here. If they only knew how vile a person he was (beat his second wife badly), got kickbacks on contracts, and was a general political crook.

Today DC is the Capitol of America, and known as “The Capitol of Potheads and Potholes”. Drive around No. Capital Street, Michigan Avenue NE, Maine Ave SE, etc. and you’ll see more potholes than I saw bomb craters in VN.

Democrats are the death of the major American cities, and it is only going to get worse, if that is possible.

“Nancy Pelosi’s brother (D’Allesandro III), who let the black rioters go unchallenged”

that certainly didn’t come as a major surprise although I’d not heard of the events before..

The people who voted for this current mayor are certainly getting what should have been expected!

Like Israel in the day’s of old....the people demand a nasty king...and all hell breaks loose.

time for a sea change!

I had a friend in what was known as “Box 414”, a citizen support group for firemen (they provided food, donuts, coffee, etc) to firemen on the scene). My late friend was well connected to 414 and he had a police/fire radio, which we listened too at nights when I visited him (and dated his older daughter).

He could tell you what engine company was responding and to what kind of call. He knew a lot of the guys. He told me after the riots in 1968 that Firemen had picked up leaflets directing rioters to specific spots to pick up dumped rocks and bricks for the rioting.

My late friend and mentor Herb Philbrick, former FBI undercover agent, also told me about, and showed me at least one document of similar vein for DC. His ties to the Bureau ran long and deep.

In fact, I was with him the night that Dr. King was killed, and I told him about it before he was scheduled to speak at a Black church (Southern Baptist) in NW DC. He gave the speak, talked to some of the attendees, and then left with his wife.

I also left but made the mistake of turning back to 14th Street NW instead of going west to 18th and cutting back to the 14th Street Bridge over the Potomac.

I saw the first burning of papers on 14th & U, NW but I never saw any police up there. I finally found a Secret Service captain at the White House gate and told him what was going on (this was after 8:30 PM). He took off to investigate as this was the first time he had heard of any potential trouble.

The next day DC erupted, egged on by communist Stokely Carmichael’s call, and that of terrorist H. Rap. Brown, for the city to “Burn, Baby, Burn.”

If I can find it, I think Carmichael was in Havana and made his call over Radio Havana for an uprising while Burn was in the US.

I have never seen a real story on who the rioters were and where their leadership and supplies came from.

I do know that when I checked police booking sheets for Black Panthers in both Baltimore (re a cop-killing by Donald Cox and gang), and in DC (led by communist Paul Pumphrey), that most of the BPP members were either unemployed or partially employed “lumpenproletariat” ignoramuses and street trash.

With Attorney General Ramsey Clark in charge in DC, things could, and did, get worst, not better, for nearly a week. Almost the same in Baltimore under Mayor D’Alessandro the Coward. I saw the burnt out stores, including one belonging to a woman who later worked for our business (a clothes cleaning business). Jews were specifically targeted yet the mayor said nothing about it.

The late, brave Rabbi Herschel Leibowitz, Green Spring Valley Orthodox Synagogue (to which my family belonged), asked the congregation at a special meeting:

“Where is our good friend the mayor? Why isn’t he stopping these attacks on Jewish businesses?” etc.

For the first time in my life, I heard a shual audience respond to his questions with “Yes, where is the mayor?” and even stronger condemnations of D’Alessandro. Remember, his sister was Nancy Pelosi, so leftist/Democratic cowardice ran in the family, though his father, also once the mayor, was a pretty good guy.

Lots of backstories about what went on in the 1968 riots, and what is going on now. Let’s see who covers them, and who doesn’t.

Nothing much new except for those internet journalists who actually go out and photo-cover these events and show us the signs of many of the protestors, and what they actually do.

Why doesn’t he seek answers as to why his people commit so many crimes and they run from police thinking everything will be okay?

right on cue

Yep - he has his perfect venue - thugs who are willing to riot and destroy and police handcuffed by the thuglette that wants to give them room and space to destroy.
