Baltimore schools are at the bottom of the nation’s performance ratings.

The schools are quite frankly a disgrace. Have a family member who teaches and she has 16-and-17-year olds who cannot read or write but whom have simply been promoted along. They are a lost generation.

Secondly, per another extended family member who is a retired BPD officer, the police department has declined in number by about 50% over the last decade. They simply do not have the manpower to effectively police the city anymore. And who wants to join the police department when you have a mayor and states attorney actively working to undermine you and prosecute you?

I see no solutions to this death spiral.

The solutions have to come within, but they keep voting the same party in so that isn’t going to happen.

Go such LBJ’s great society and the history of single black parenting.
You will find a huge split in stats due to the social engineering of the dem’s starting with LBJ.
Destruction of the black family is the root of their shit and failures, seeding all the bullshit issues of the blacks.

Gun violence? LOL niggers are the kings of it. They exceed the whites in per 100,000 samples while being only 18 percent of the population/

Be careful in the stats as yo always have to “normalize” the populations before attempting to work with the data.

Black Lives Matter? Not one iota.
Its just an excuse to go to war with the police, and by extension whitey.
Morons, all of them. Pawns of the marxists and muslims in the alinsky program.

“Where the Democrats are in charge, this is invariably foreseeable. They don’t seem to mind.”

Yes, it’s bad enough to have a White RAT Administration in a city, but when the Black RATs take over ( i.e. Baltimore, DC, St. Louis, Detroit, you name it) it’s “Katy Bar the Door,” for death, misery and corruption.

I’d like to see a merchant with a trap door in front of the counter that drops the thug into a locked basement.......No blood, no mess, just call the cops to come and get him.

He said he was working in December when an armed man wearing a ski mask walked into the store as it opened and demanded cash and cigarettes.

Cigarettes?!

Cigs, in this case, AKA ‘Kools’

"Isn’t this what they call the Ferguson effect? When you prosecute cops for doing their job don’t be surprised when they don’t do their job. Enjoy the increased crime wave."

That's exactly what's happening.
(When the cops get mad and don't come to work, it's called the Blue Flu. What do you call it when they get mad and come to work?)

Who wants to do business in a de facto war zone?

I wonder if they remember to check their privilege before they check out.

The cat died last night...

- Well, it started in a dysfunctional household
- Then there was a teenage mother and no father to be found
- Then it became education by television and smart phones
- Then it became underperforming at school
- Then it became a behavior problem at school
- Then it went into the streets instead of school
- Then it went into gangs and robberies
- Then it went to juvenile court
- Then it went back to the streets
- Then it went back into gangs and drug dealing and robberies
- Then it went into gang initiation and retribution
- Then it ended in murder.

For every murder there’s a hundred other crimes. That’s how the cat died last night...

Cigarettes?!

At $80 to $130 a carton retail (depending on whether you live in Jersey, Maryland or NY), when the store opened there was a ton more value in smokes, than there was cash in the register.
