“Is it safe in Baltimore”?.......
Ask any city controlled by demdoummies and you will have the answer. (Chicago, Detroit, etc. etc.)
Bingo! You nailed it!
Another iconic American city ruined by Democrats! What else is new!
I would throw in one more factor in most of these dangerous cities!
A left wing media that ignores or glorifies criminal violence. Then spends unlimited energy/resources on news showing the bad cops instead of the killing/robing/raping PC denizens in those cities like this one.
How many major PC cities with uncontrollable serious crimes have female mayors and lesbian Police Chiefs backed by their mediots?
There are a number of universities in Baltimore. my nephew is going to law school there. I hope he gets out and doesntsettle in Baltimore.
Most people end up (if they work there)....living 20 miles outside of town and just driving in. The only area that I think is completely safe....is around the harbor area where tourists usually come.
It’s more or less becoming like Detroit and Birmingham. They tend to run the same way....you live elsewhere and just drive to your job.
One of the cops was white. Thankfully the city didnt burn this time, before the judicial process played out. Maybe Mosby was warned by her lawyers this time?
Detective Sean Suiter was killed the day before he was to testify against this bunch. Close range shot to the head with his own service weapon.
Yeah pretty much. I walked home from Fells Point this morning early AM no problem. I don't make a habit of that though....
Uh.....................................................no
” The only area that I think is completely safe....is around the harbor area where tourists usually come.”
As I’ve read in the past, they keep the Inner Harbor ‘safe’ by simply not reporting on the crime there (they fund much of the city government). Unless it’s a murder, any crime there will simply ‘not be of interest’ to the Sun...and hence, for most people, never happened. So they just keep coming into this mouse trap.
The population did go up a little bit a few years ago due to gentrification initiatives, but it is going back down. Some of the gentrified areas are beautiful cesspools with expensive, refurbished houses in high crime areas.
There were a string of attacks on people in the Inner Harbor by wild youths. If it has a reputation for being safe it is probably because, as you say, they don’t report the crimes.
If it’s Chicago data, then it probably came from heyjackass.com
From previous visits, the other 10 could be stabbing, blunt force trauma, strangulation, arson, child abuse, or motor vehicle assault.
I don’t recall seeing any defenestrations, though. Probably covered under blunt force trauma.

Yea, I have read that about Baltimore. The media really should be held accountable when they spike information like this...but that will never happen.
1. Easily available access to cabs means you could get anywhere efficiently and safely.
2.Hotel staff and cab drivers were very open about where it was and was not safe to go, and at what hours. By their suggestions, they weren't giving us a very long leash.
3. So many businesses no longer exist that it's created dead zones between places that are geographically pretty close.
I felt quite safe, but it was very obvious that Baltimore is a place where one has to be very, very careful.
JMHO
Do I really need a /sarc tag?
Conservatives Fault!
Exactly right. Inner harbor is a neat area to visit until you realize it is only two blocks that insulate you from Mogadishu.
Is that sheriff a black tranny?
