Whenever I see these cities that have been ruined by decades of liberal politicians, I always wonder: have these people never considered voting republican?
Baltimore, St. Louis, Detroit, Cleveland, Newark, Chicago.... all linked together by one thing: leftist-induced crime.
This is probably one of the most ignorant post I have read.
"Baltimore has been a violent city for a very long time.
balt has been run by dems for eons!
Which prove my point even MORE.
What good are all those gun laws the dems like to pass?
I thought they were ALL "common sense" laws and would solve the problem.
A man with a hammer thinks everything is a nail. Amazing how one turns the legacy of slavery into the nail of left right politics.
Every place, on this planet, that has had a history of racial slavery and oppression, is experiencing higher rates of murder among the descendants of the enslaved (DOS). Hence, countries, states, cities, with a higher percentage of DOS will experience higher rates of poverty, crime, murder, etc.
Brazil, the Caribbean, South Africa, The United States, etc, all places which had racial slavery and racial oppression, also experience higher rates of homicides among DOS.
This does not have a dam thing to do with Democrat or Republican.....but a man with only a hammer must see everything as a nail.
Cops are staying in their cars. They’re sick of the cell phone cameras coming out every time they make a stop.
Take a bow SJWs *sound of applause*
Perhaps the biggest canard spun by academics, leftist commentators and groups like Black Lives Matter is that cops literally hang around the poorest, blackest neighborhoods, looking for black folks to arrest. Quite to the contrary, cops avoid those neighborhoods as much as possible. They don't want to put their lives in danger anymore than you nor I. But as someone else already noted, we can't have "real conversations" about race in this country. Instead, we get giant conspiracy theories about teachers and school administrators and cops and prosecutors and judges and politicians all plotting how to target a particular group of people to imprison them for doing absolutely nothing at all.

Get some new tools.
Er, most all places on the planet have histories of enslavement and oppression. This is the sort of non-scientific piffle passing as learned study that keeps us from having "real conversations."
I suppose it's in there somewhere. I don't know where. Yes, last I read the shot was from the back side of his head behind his ear and came out the front of his head. An awfully awkward position to shoot yourself. And then it doesn't explain all the other stories we were told.
Never mind that we know for an absolute fact the police force was corrupt. The number of officers arrested and arrested and convicted over what they were unless it's widely known what was going on.
I thought about this. Atlanta is a majority Black city, and ran by Democrats. It could do better in terms of crime. However, it's murder rate is far lower than Baltimore's. Atlanta's murder rate has been on the decline. Baltimore keeps getting worse.
