BALTIMORE BLOODSHED HIKES OVER HOLIDAY

28 shot; 9 dead in weekend violence

Baltimore city streets were turned into a virtual crime zone over the holiday weekend, with 28 people shot and nine left dead by the time a gruesome Memorial Day weekend wrapped.

CBS Baltimore reported the violence capped the worst month the city has seen in terms of deadly incidents in 15-plus years.

Former Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown blamed the spate of shootings on poor leadership, saying during a Fox & Friends morning segment the mayor in particular, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, ought to be ashamed for criticizing the crime statistics after she fueled Freddie Gray protests by suggesting officers needed to back off protesters and let them have their First Amendment say.

Gray was the black man who died in April, shortly after police took him into custody.

4 staffers including the highest ranking staffer, have left Mayor SRB's criminal justice team in recent weeks.
I've also heard there has been a mass exodus of the circuit court ASA's in Baltimore City. No one wants to soil their reputation by working under the utter incompetence of SRB and Mosby.
Both are the prime example of what a failure affirmative action is.
Mosby can't even pronounce words properly. Someone needs to educate the ghetto trash girl that the "t" in often in silent.

If black lives matter then why the hell are they killing each other?

All will be well soon. All political appointments are now being given to people of color.
