The jail point I agree with, so long as they are also removing guns from the streets and tightening up consequences for those who use one.
Portland, Denver, Boston, Madison, they are are liberal cities too. None of them come close to the levels of violence that Baltimore is dealing with.

I too agree with getting murderers off the street.

The difference between liberal cities like Portland, Denver, Boston, Madison is a low % of African American residents while Baltimore is a 63% minority-majority city.

Then you can't say liberalism is the problem. If, according to your assessment, Blacks are the problem, what do you suggest be done about the violence problem in Baltimore?

Sounds like you want to drive Black people out of Baltimore, like they did in Seattle, to make it nice.

Uh,no. First of all, you don't know anything about me. You don't know what I want. Two, I was responding to someone else mentioning race. I asked that person what he or she thought an appropriate solution would be if said person says race is a problem. I wanted to know that person's opinion, so get out of here witg your petulant accusations.

I know enough about you by what you post.

Rattling off jingles like "you don't know me", etc. is an invalid argument. No **** I don't know you, just enough, pertaining to what's being discussed. You're just some insignificant person I'm debating with over the internet....so I obviously don't need your resume nor know you intimately. What next?

"...only God can judge me"

"...I take care of my kids...."

Okay, what I have posted that would make you think I want Blacks to leave? Better yet, name some personal things about me. The only thing you can do is accuse me of hating Blacks, but you haven't proven it.

How about wanting criminals to leave no matter the race? I don't care what percentage of what race is it is.

We have prisons to put criminals in, of every race. And my response was to someone who accused me of wanting Blacks to leave Baltimore. I never said that. I was wondering if there are some on this thread who want Blacks gone from Baltimore.
