DC: Baltimore is experiencing its second deadliest year on record, with 319 homicides committed in the city so far in 2017.
The deadliest year on record occurred in 2015 with 344 homicides, reported The Baltimore Sun.
Baltimore’s Democratic Mayor Catherine E. Pugh called the violence in 2017 “out of control,” and said she would be increasing the number of police officers to 3,000, according to The Baltimore Sun.
The most recent murder took place in East Baltimore, where an unidentified 21-year-old man was shot and killed Thursday, near Lafayette. The suspect is named Allen Hosea Johnson Jr. and was banned from owning a firearm due to past criminal convictions.
I think the murder rate per capita is higher in Baltimore than in most war zones.
They’ll have to get ten murders per week for the rest of the month to hit the 2017 One-A-Day jackpot. C’mon, Baltimore, give it your best shot! So to speak.
Wow. They are really under performing. Do they need more ammo or something? The is really disappointing.
Ho hum. Baltimore. Chicago. San Francisco. Richmond.
What we need is community redevelopment v5.0.
I sense an air of disillusionment in this thread.
Plenty of shopping days left!
These Killer’s are the Same Guys Whose 300 pound Wife is Screaming Innocent and Racist, as their Murdering Sperm Donors are carted off !
Too bad all those democraps can still vote after they are dead. Otherwise it’d be a great program.
Well, leave the dems in charge…..I’m sure they can break that record.
Place must be an animal pit. Where I live it’s been 17 years since someone was shot.
They were 2 people from New York City, drug dealers.
Small town syndrome I guess.
@PHenry – How can one be disillusioned when one had no illusions to begin with?
(Aside: I’m a native Marylander, born in Annapolis, and have lived more years in that state than in any other of the several states where I’ve resided as an adult.)

How many murders are there when its in control?
This is nothing compared to the Tsunami that is coming in the next few years.
I reference an earlier posting on this site : https://iotwreport.com/shock-zero-students-at-six-baltimore-schools-test-proficient-in-english-or-math/
You are going to have a massive population of kids with no job skills(even if there were jobs for them), all of them being told that they are the victims of systemic racism and oppression.

Bear with me as this is racist and I apologize for my Protestant Mum who used to be Catholic….Nigga, Nigga, Duck….you seem to be stuck in the muck….Nigga, Nigga, Duck….

Wow dude, your rap career is suspect. Just sayen. LOL
THE MAIN PROBLEM IS….
they should never be able to find enough to get 3000 officers.
SCREW THEM! Don’t apply for the job. It’s not worth your life. You let Darwinism work itself out there.
How many NFL players are taking a knee in Baltimore?
So funny. This in ANOTHER high gun control state/city. Absolutely illustrative that gun control DOES NOT WORK.
Guns CANNOT commit murder. I’ve never seen an ounce of film depicting a gun committing a crime. They just don’t have the ability to work without a human holding them.
@ BAD BRAD….. I believe it was British/ Scottish about 1500”s or so…
You’ll probably prove me wrong but I know you looked……or am I wrong?…
How long before Baltimore catches up to, and surpasses, Shit-cago?
Willy,
You keep me laughing all night long. Leg night Bro. At 61 I’m hurting and Uncle Jack is not helping. I’m not looking at shit tonight. To be continued bud.
@Bad BRAD…..GOD BLESS YOU….if your really Bad Brad….hell you might be a cardigan by now….
“if your really Bad Brad”
Am I an asshole? Yes. That’s how you know it’s me. LOL.
@ Bad Brad…..I think you should be forthwith known as “CARDIGAN BAD BRAD”…..shit, the title comes with a tie….and a clasp…..and maybe a hand maiden with polish your tulip….
Of course these are the all-black areas of Baltimore, in blue state MD. The white areas of Baltimore are very pleasant and livable w some great restaurants and a bit of historical pedigree. The violence spills over into places like the Inner Harbor on occasion. If Balt were to start knocking over public housing and telling the residents to scram, they could start cleaning the place up, but it’s a blue (dumb) state.
It grates on them Chicago gets all the press.
Modern day Darwinian natural selection.
St. Louis has the highest
murder rate. Baltimore is
second on the list. If you
stay out of the “no-go” N zones
it’s not too bad. The touristas
don’t know this and some wind
up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Otherwise the violence is
mostly black druggies shooting
one another with collateral
damage to their black neighbors.
Since black juries won’t find
them guilty because “theys jus
tryin to feeds theys famblies”
the violence goes on.
Just a nuther democRAT flagship city turned into a run-down, shot-up, burned-out, poverty-stricken, urine-soaked, rat-infested, crime-ridden, feces-friendly city brought to you by corrupt Rat politicians rewarding cronies with public funds, establishing hostile business environments, heavily taxing the most productive citizens, setting up fat pensions for their union friends run by democRATS for decades who “really care” about the poor by selling them fabricated “Racism”, “Hope & Change” snake oil and promising Free Shit every time there is an election!
Would be cheaper, more cost effective to build a wall around the city and let gang bangers take care of the problem one stolen gun at a time. Like Chicago and Detroit, Baltimore is corrupt, rotten to the core, morally bankrupt, and hopeless. No amount of money is going to fix the problem because lack of money is not the problem. Breakdown of the black family, enabled by welfare, is the problem.
Send ABC’s Brian Ross into Baltimore so he can tell us GUN Control works.
Not enough – and always the wrong ones.
izlamo delenda est …
I lived in the Inner Harbor area from 1999 until 2002, when the city was actually improving. SO GLAD I’m not there now. The monkeys are loose in all sectors and there is no plan to address this.
