Baltimore Is Begging Feds To Step In To Restore Law And Order


Baltimore’s mayor asked the FBI to send in reinforcements Wednesday to help the city get its murders under control.

Mayor Catherine Pugh, speaking at a news conference, explained she went to the FBI’s Baltimore office for extra agents to join with police officers in combating a skyrocketing murder count, reports CNN.

“Murder is out of control. There are too many guns on the streets. We’re looking for all the help we can get,” Pugh said.

The city already has 101 murders for the year, a number not seen in almost 20 years. The mayor’s spokesperson warned the violence could rise in the summer months.

Well, how about you start by getting rid of the illegal immigrants and then keep the convicts in jail until their time is served! These liberal leanings of the mayor and city council are your downfall!

Too many guns on the street? Hah! Those savages would be killing each other even if all they had were sticks and rocks.

Violence always rises in the summer months in Baltimore and every other large city. Duh.

They brought this on their own selves by not supporting their officers. Of course there is a shortage of officers. Who is crazy enough to want to apply for a job as a police officer in Baltimore when they become the ones being charged for doing their job! !

How about putting guns in the hands of responsible citizens and not making them defenseless. Having to rely on police response is a joke in this liberal state.

So what does the Mayor think of "Stop and Frisk?" It is the most effective way to get guns off the streets.

Remember what the last idiot mayor said "You have to give them space to destroy". Obviously that meant to kill as well to the low life thugs. It could be easy to fix the political problem of stupid liberals running the cities. As a resident if you don't pay taxes - you don't vote. Watch the cities change for the better overnight.

I recently had to go to VA hospital in Baltimore and I didn't even recognize it. The roads were all torn up nothing but steel plates as roadways. There was a construction crew on every corner just standing around, made up of mostly, oh wait a minute can I say it, Hispanics. Then you have rge ghetto rats on every street 20-30 deep standing around dancing BSing.

Stop and Frisk! Don't all the liberals think that policy is racist? Searching black males on the streets for guns, when black males on the streets are killing each other with guns, just doesn't make sense to a liberal. Liberals are great at politicizing a problem, but never solving them.

Now there is a President that supports LEO and this Mayor has changed her mind since she was elected and cry for help. Remember her past DemocRAT Mayors. They were / are gun control nuts that did not support their LEOs and allowed illegals / gangs drug pushers to rule Baltimore. These DumbocRATs were the ones who pleaded to Obama to get DOJ involved. Loretta Lynch is the one that conducted the scathing review against the Baltimore LEOs. Baltimore and the DumbocRATs asked for it and they have it. So they have to deal with it on their own.

That's what the Mayor and States Attorney fought for, while charging cops who interfered with felonies. They got what they fought for.

I thought Maryland and Baltimore wanted to be a sanctuary state/city?!?!?
After how many years of democratic power, and they still blame republicans and rich white people for their problems.
Those people must love misery because they keep voting for it.

Anonymous said...

Why? It's a sanctuary city and the states attorney will indicte the police for doing the job... This is what they wanted and now they have it... call Hillary Clinton or al sharpton or obama.

I thought owemalley's gun control bullsh!! was going to put a stop to all this gun crime. You know keep the children safe. 10 round magazines, HQL card required to even exercise your constitutional rights, finger prints, photo, mandatory class, and don't forget your fee to the MSP. I guess the thugs in charm city didn't get the memo.

Baltimore gave birth to this mess, let Baltimore deal with raising the mess. Take care of your own, don't expect entitlements.

101 Murders so far this year? That's chump change. Chicago has that many a day.

This new Mayor did not run on change so why is she acting like she needs help now. She is now / was before elected part of the problem so she can deal with it.

Doesn't the Governor have to declare a State of Emergency first before any request for federal assistance happen?? I know that Governor Hogan would have no problem declaring a State Of Emergency but she needs to make sure she follows the law.

Keep charging arresting officers with the crime of doing their jobs and you city will continue to become a murder capitol!

You chose that route and you will now have to drive that road...
