Lack of Police? I wonder why?

Union: Baltimore City Police in ‘Crisis’ Due to Officer Shortage Really? Some believe specialized units may be the problem. “The rank and file believe that all these specialized units that have been created under this commissioner is what’s depleting patrol,” said Lt. Ryan. Drudge picked up on this CBS (WJZ) news story about Baltimore's lack of police officers crisis that, amazingly, completely ignored the the Freddie Gray Riots, and how Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake sided with the rioters and applauded when  Baltimore State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby charged six officers with homicide.  All of whom were acquitted. This sample of comments  take up that slack. William Carson (@TitaniumTestis) January 6, 2017 at 9:28 am I used to care about the plight of the cities. ------------------------------------- Now? After 8 years of being called the most horrid things by the Dem party, watching as inner city pulls people from cars, beats them bloody, chases white kids down and beats them, ect, ect than they call ME racist and n-zi? You know what? TS. You made your bed, sleep in it. -------------------------------------- Brian The Punter (@BryanThePunter) January 6, 2017 at 1:09 pm Detroit part 2.. what did all you people expect would happen under black leadership and I use that word in the loosest terms. ------------------------------------- bob smitty (@bobbob7896) January 6, 2017 at 9:34 am time to stop caring about crime ridden leftwing run cities who don’t care about anything except how much Federal welfare money they can get. ------------------------------------- Abraham Sampson January 6, 2017 at 9:40 am There are more than 100 fewer Baltimore City PD officers than last year, before the Mayor said that rioters needed room to destroy? Imagine that! Hmm. ------------------------------------- Tom Menino January 6, 2017 at 12:06 pm Seriously. Who wants to work in Mogadishu, Maryland? Any city run by liberal affirmative action leadership is doomed to become a primitive war zone. ------------------------------------- Reply Gene Smith January 6, 2017 at 9:42 am I spent 21 years policing in a city of 350,000 so I know a bit about the topic, but I cannot figure out why any thinking o\person would desire to be a cop in a hell-hole where the mayor and prosecutor are out and out racists who hate cops. When someone arrests and charges that mayor and prosecutor for their racist misconduct you will find it much easier to recruit officers. But until those two snags are behind bars it will be hard to do. ------------------------------------- Charles Tomey January 6, 2017 at 9:45 am More left wing success stories from the democratic Utopia of Baltimore. Hope and Change in action ------------------------------------- John Fogarty January 6, 2017 at 9:48 am Hard to believe, no one wants to be a cop in the rat hole known as Baltimore City. Maybe it’s the criminals outnumber the cops and the City States Attorney is an incompetent racist. ------------------------------------- cpisearey January 6, 2017 at 9:57 am It’s amazing to me that the article does not mention at all about the riots and how Baltimore cops were/are being targeted by both the government and the criminals! Almost like it doesn’t exist. Are you kidding me? That is why the problem will not be solved. Until the liberal city government and liberal/biased media get their heads out of the sand, and acknowledge the real problem, their plans are destined to fail. ------------------------------------- Donald G Hattier Dc January 6, 2017 at 11:14 am ?, its the city managers who created this environment of fear to be a cop? The cops should all find other jobs where people appreciate them and leave Baltimore to the hell hole that it is. ------------------------------------- Pags (@joepapagno) January 6, 2017 at 10:08 am This is what happens when your city chastises police at every turn and sides with BLM over the police. If you want to back the Thugs then you will put them in charge. Good Luck Baltimore, I no longer visit your city because of how bad things are. We used to frequent inner harbor and Camden yards but never again. ------------------------------------- Reply Jack Pod January 6, 2017 at 10:17 am Considering the current political structure, no sane person would apply for a job with the Baltimore Police Dept. ------------------------------------- Reply Sandy Pretoriat January 6, 2017 at 10:20 am I hope all the cops leave. let the Black Looters Matter animals have the city and get the immigrates to build a wall around it. Come back in five years after the vultures have picked all the bones clean and bulldoze everything over. And on, and on, and on ..... Whoops!  Joe Kliplinger Wrote ...
