National Org. Calls For Firing Of Baltimore Housing Commissioner

BALTIMORE (WJZ)–The Baltimore Housing Authority sex-for-repairs scandal has prompted a call for the mayor to fire Housing Commissioner Paul Graziano.

Pat Warren reports, the anti-sexism activists are taking their protest to the streets.

Two rolling billboards are on the street asking why the Housing Commissioner Paul Graziano hasn’t been fired after women in public housing reported they were coerced by maintenance men for sex in exchange for repairs to their homes.

The national anti-sexism group Ultra Violet put the billboards out there, part of a campaign the group says includes a signed petition and 2500 phone calls.

Yet these "Anti-sexism" protestors conveniently ignore the threat of Islamic misogyny right in their own communities.

If the commissioner knew about the maintenance men's behavior yet did nothing about it then by all means fire him...although he probably "couldn't" fire them without being fired himself for being "racist".

But if he had never received actionable evidence of it, then leave him out of it.

Hopefully the maintenance men have been permanently fired and barred from any government paid job.

Would it have been an issue if he were black?

What they should be concentrating on is a civil suit against the criminals.
