C.D. - Baltimore Exposes a Dire Need for Help & that Black Lives do NOT Matter !

ASA, 

OK, I have to re-re correct myself, for it was stated before the grand jury indictments, that State's Attorney Mosley had indeed accomplished this at the time she read the charges against the BPD6. 

I was wrong, but only because of the errant reporting by the media.

In the meantime, have you read about how Baltimore is practically spiraling out of control?

38 murders so far in May, the worse is 15 years? Including the execution-style slaying of a 31-year-old woman and her 7-yeaer-old son? 

Black Lives Matter? Great for a wall-hanging slogan, but apparently, for the lot of us, that's as far as it goes. 

Any protests? Rallies? 

As the trial of the BPD6 approaches, are the BPD partly to blame? After all, the reports are that they're either too demoralized or afraid, to carry out their sworn duty as police officers. According to the head of their union, the BPD is "more afraid of going to jail than getting shot">

MAYBE this is the best argument for a mandatory residency policy for all municipal workers, including (especially?) the police?

Do the DOJ's "investigations" send the wrong message, emboldening the criminals, while demonizing and neutering the police?

Yet, what is the proper manner of reacting to what many believe, are too many killings of black people, at the hand of police? 

No matter how you slice it, "Houston", we've got a big problem in Black America.

P.S. To the police of Baltimore or anywhere:

Do you are so presumptuous to maintain that under no circumstance, are police to be held to accountability, rebuke or scorn, and that the people who you pledged to serve, are completely out of sorts, when conditions may lead them to be suspicious of the intent and actions of scores of your colleagues?
