Rates.

Black lives matter in Baltimore? Not to the black leadership in Baltimore
they don’t. Freddie Gray was a punk with at least 17 arrests to his credit.
He was not all that long out of prison and was facing felony charges that
could send him back to prison when he ran from the cops in April and was
arrested.
Gray was taken into custody, appears to have been bounced around in the back
of a police van, sustained injuries while in custody and died from those
injuries. We haven’t seen, and if the prosecutor, Marilyn Mosby has
anything to do with it we won’t see, the results of any investigations into
the conduct of the officers charged in his death.
Here’s what we do know though. Cops are tired of being assaulted by the
thugs in the black community and then being arrested or hounded off the
force when they do their jobs. The net result? Here it is.
In May, with a record 42 murders in the city, arrests dropped from about 3,
700 in 2014 to just over a 1,000 this year. And as for June’s murders,
after 8 days there have been 13 murders in Baltimore. We’ve not been able
to find a listing of the dead by race, but we’d bet out of the 55 murders
since May 1 a minimum of 54 were black. The “leadership” in the black
community isn’t smart enough to realize that by calling the cops off crime
is going to go up, and the people who will be real victims will be members
of their own “community.”
Here are two cops speaking with a Baltimore reporter.
The political structure in Baltimore – all Democrat, very far left, and all
black – are in denial about why arrests are down.
“There’s enough narcotics on the streets of Baltimore to keep it
intoxicated for a year,” Batts said Wednesday. “That amount of drugs has
thrown off the balance on the streets of Baltimore.” (This is, City Paper
notes, a bit exaggerated.) Batts also said that officers have been
patrolling in pairs rather than the normal solo beats, which effectively
halves the number of patrols.
The FOP offers a bleaker, though related, rationale for the decrease in
arrests: Officers are afraid, its leader says. On the one hand, they’re
beset by hostile citizens who carefully monitor every arrest, crowding
around officers who are just trying to do their jobs and capturing the
detentions on camera, lest they turn into another Freddie Gray situation. On
the other hand, police are also afraid a prosecutor will haul them in front
of a jury.
The armed force that is responsible to keep the peace in Baltimore believes
the top of their chain-of-command is out to get the cops. We are more than
willing to believe that there are more than a few cops in Baltimore – or
any American city – who have no business being on the force. The problem is
, what Mosby, etal are doing is not the right way to root out the bad cops.
All they’re doing is putting Baltimore’s most at risk citizens at even
more risk.
