When the article is anti-LE it's biased and full of lies, now suddenly news reporting is gospel. So tell me, what do YOU think is actually happening then? (this should be good) Bottom line is that I don't really care either way. But ArfLEOs call every news story that shines a sliver of bad light on cops biased and full of lies, now suddenly the media is purer than the blessed Mary. It's comical to watch. B'more has been a shit hole forever, and will remain a shit hole whether there are cops or not. Burning it to the ground was a good start, too bad they half assed it. Well, that's pretty much the vapid nonsensical response I expected. Used to many big words for ya sport? |

Given that "crime" is not a nebulous entity that floats around on high and inflicts itself on the populace (much as it is portrayed that way in Comstat meetings and by governments in general,) but something done by criminals, yes, LE does to an extent prevent some crimes, and can serve to reduce the number crimes in a given area in some cases.

Agreed. However, many citizens have determined measures aimed at preventing crime are "racial profiling" and "harassment". |

You don't care yet here you are crying about it. Is that what this means? I think I understand you better now. No that is laughing at your silly posts where you start off saying it doesn't matter then go on and cry about something probably related to sand being in a sensitive place. I find it really amusing that you go out of your way to let everyone know your distaste for police even when the thread topic is about any police wrong doing. It shows that you have some kind of deep seeded issue or possible imbalance. The news article in the OP is quoting a man who wants to see the police and that hurts your feelings and really bothers you , due to your deep seeded issue with LE, because he doesn't think the same way that you do. Just because he thinks that doesn't mean he is wrong and that you are right. You obviously have your opinion but in the real world nobody cares what your opinion is because places keep hiring LEOs. Go ahead and keep going on about how cops hate the media and that cops say that all media are lying when you are being dishonest with the subject yourself. You cannot honestly say that media gets all things right all the time. If you do assert that then we know you are being dishonest. So unless you are saying this guy didn't say those words and that the media is lying about what he said then your comments really hold no value and you would have been good in just posting instead. To summarize what I just said for you to understand: "" |

Cincinnati/Over-the-Rhine may have shown the blueprint for dealing with this.
After the 2001 riots with similar circumstances (unarmed young black male running from cops was shot & killed), police had a work slowdown and crime started going up, peaking around 2005-06 when the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood was named the most dangerous neighborhood in the United States. Property values dropped to levels where developers started buying things up and the police started getting serious about cleaning the area up. A few years later and it became hipster-land. Loretta Lynch was just here praising the Cincinnati PD for how they handled things. Baltimore might just be following that playbook. |

I'd be scared to if I lived in a city where I couldnt carry a gun to defend myself legally.
I think it is funny how the state or city makes it illegal to defend yourself, then shuts off security when they get their panties in a knot. Just goes to show what unions and progressive democrats can do in a few generations. |

Quoted: Perrine's brother is one of 36 people killed in Baltimore so far this month, already the highest homicide count for May since 1999. But while homicides are spiking, arrests have plunged more than 50 percent compared to last year. The drop in arrests followed the death of Freddie Gray from injuries he suffered in police custody. Gray's death sparked protests against the police and some rioting, and led to the indictment of six officers. Now West Baltimore residents worry they've been abandoned by the officers they once accused of harassing them. In recent weeks, some neighborhoods have become like the Wild West without a lawman around, residents said. "Before it was over-policing. Now there's no police," said Donnail "Dreads" Lee, 34, who lives in the Gilmor Homes, the public housing complex where Gray, 25, was arrested. "I haven't seen the police since the riots," Lee said. "People feel as though they can do things and get away with it. I see people walking with guns almost every single day, because they know the police aren't pulling them up like they used to." Police Commissioner Anthony Batts said last week his officers "are not holding back" from policing tough neighborhoods, but they are encountering dangerous hostility in the Western District. "Our officers tell me that when officers pull up, they have 30 to 50 people surrounding them at any time," Batts said. At a City Council meeting Wednesday, Batts said officers have expressed concern they could be arrested for making mistakes. "What is happening, there is a lot of levels of confusion in the police organization. There are people who have pain, there are people who are hurt, there are people who are frustrated, there are people who are angry," Batts said. "There are people, and they've said this to me, 'If I get out of my car and make a stop for a reasonable suspicion that leads to probable cause but I make a mistake on it, will I be arrested?' They pull up to a scene and another officer has done something that they don't know, it may be illegal, will they be arrested for it?
