Now murders in Baltimore in May have been more than double what they were in May last year, and higher than in any May in the past 15 years. Meanwhile, the number of arrests is down by more than 50 percent.
Various other communities across the country are experiencing very similar explosions of crime and reductions of arrests, in the wake of anti-police mob rampages from coast to coast that the media sanitize as “protests.”
None of this should be surprising. In her carefully researched 2010 book, “Are Cops Racist?” Heather Mac Donald pointed out that, after anti-police campaigns, cops tended to do less policing and criminals tended to commit more crimes.
If all this has been known for years, why do the same mistakes keep getting made?

STOP the brutality ON the Police and let them do their jobs and deal with the THUGs the correct way.
6 shootings already today. At least one has resulted in a death. Not sure if any more have at this point in time. Still 3 hours left in the day.
Let them kill each other off, less for the cops to have to deal with.

That's what they are griping about. They called all the stop and frisks and arrests for minor offenses measures implemented under O'Malley harassment. Many illegal handguns were taken off the streets of Baltimore when a cops arrested people for taking a leak on the side of a building. Same with loitering, littering, etc. Not only did they find weapons and/or drugs on these offenders but some even turned into snitches resulting in other (more serious and violent) crimes being solved and the charges against them (for the minor offenses) dropped.
Didn't our very own Sheriff of Wicomico tell us on TV that the police are "standing down?" They are frightened and don't want to die or get arrested for doing their job? That is what I thought I heard.
they're not so scared to write speeding or seatbelt tickets now are they?
