“Don’t shit in your own nest.” — old English proverb
Sixty-two years ago, before the Baltimore Harbor tunnel was completed (November, 1957), drivers had to traverse much of this inner-city when going north or south between New York and Washington, DC. Back then I recall that this city was famous for its freshly-scrubbed white front steps (often owned by minorities) — a badge of pride for the Charm City of Edgar Allen Poe.
Now things have dramatically changed and, according to almost every honest observer, Baltimore resembles a “third-world country” (ala Bernie Sanders). It has the highest murder rate in the US and is a sullen, broken, corrupt society. Why did this descent into hell occur. Perhaps 52 years of unbroken Democrat mayors and 23 years of being represented in Congress by Democrat Elijah Cummings?
I guess anyone lamenting this fall from grace is a racist? Just another symptom of why Baltimore is such a rotten place to live ... it’s always someone else’s fault.
