Homicides in Baltimore have averaged 29 per month, which could indicate Baltimore is now on track for the deadliest year ever to be recorded. The all-time per-capita record was set back in 2015, with 344 homicides, said Fox News.

I remember when Baltimore was a nice place (1961). Like most cities there is a section that people cannot walk through at night , Baltimore you cannot walk through day or night if you are white. I do think it's time for a vigilante up-rising. The police aren't allowed to enforce the law but we will .

"Enforce the law" for police is 99.9% after the fact, too late to prevent injury or loss to victims.
