Reasons to Avoid Baltimore (Reason #67)

Gunga, that is a cheap and stupid shot at the Reps. It was a racial thing that has nothing to do with Dems.

BTW, I always avoid Baltimore by going around its beltway. Crime is out of this world in that city (where I was born).

The one variable which correlates most strongly with every sort of urban pathology in America is degree of demoKKKrat infestation. In other words, it is precisely those cities in which old style demoKKKrat machine politics prevails most powerfully, that you see all the major grief.

I mean there actually are other factors involved in Baltimore... The most major of the other things would be the block busting which was going on all during the 60s and 70s, driving the former middle class all but entirely out of the city but, then, a real government which was responsive to middle class people would have found a way to stop that.

Baltimore has always sucked. It's just gotten worse! There was once a tim you could walk down the street without getting mugged. No more!

Turns out the victim in this case involved the question of "transgender" and the two female Baltimorians had some sort of a problem with "her" using the women's restroom while they were in it.....

The problem is not because of the Dems. The old big rust-bucket cities are loaded with blacks and other minorities who have little money and who are more prone to commit crimes. There are insufficient jobs and investment. This is the same in Cleveland, Philly, Boston, etc.

As far as the country goes, the Reps are making effort possible to ruin it. They are working hard to shift almost all the wealth and income to the super-rich and wealthy corporations, and are helping these people shift jobs overseas. And they even manage to get the downtrodden middle class and poor to pay for this. They should all be rounded up and drowned.

I will admit that crime in Baltimore is horrible, but not quite as bad as Detroit, Trenton, and a few other old industrial cities.

As for safely walking down the street, there are bad neighborhoods in all big cities in the USA in which one cannot walk safely.
