Maybe the problem is that the majority of those that live in the area are criminals? Even in the 80's when I was growing up, I was always told to stay away from that area or I might get shot.
I’m not gonna relax, because it shows how stupid and out of touch the MD politicians are. Let’s tax large sodas, plastic bags, etc…. That will really make Maryland a great place to live. Forget the fact we have a crime wave that they have lied about for years and started counting crime in a dishonest matter. Forget that….. it’s that gas powered weed whacker that’s really ruining the state. Smh idiots This is the problem with leftism. It’s not putting any energy into solving real problems like crime, economics, roads, schools…. Their solution is always more money…. Money that never seems to make it to the ppl who need it. Too much kickback corruption non sense. Like schools. Top ten federally funded school with bottom ten results every single year. But sure they just need more money lmao. The main reason the state and city is a wreck…… would be stupid voters refusing to admit they are wrong and continue to vote for politicians based on skin color and party affiliation. How’s that working out? Thought so.
Baltimore City. Both. There are alot of people who don't want to be a cop in Baltimore City because of the low pay. They'd rather work for the state police or the surrounding counties. The other problem is that on any given day, you have 700 police officers on suspension for misconduct.
Black water private army …. They need mercenaries not weekend warriors. No offense to guard members …. You got gang bangers that bust their guns more often than guard members.
This is everyday in the western. My husband is forced to stay every other day for a mandatory 5 additional hours because they-don’t have the staffing. Brandon Scott needs to address this and they need to increase the pay so officers want to work and stay in Baltimore !
With the way they let criminals go in Baltimore, I can not blame police officers for not wanting to take extra shifts. The system needs to fix their policies on crime and the penalties. Then, you might deter crime and get more people to join the police force. You can't expect officers to want to risk their lives more than they do to arrest criminals, only to have those criminals set free.
That's part of the problem. The other part is that they've tied the hands of cops so they can't do the job they were hired for. If you speak with any cops that have retired, they'll tell you flat out they'd never be a cop in Baltimore these days because they don't have the same authority as in the past.
Police taking over 30 or more minutes to respond is nothing new. It's been that way for literally decades. If you live in certain neighbourhoods they'll rush to respond. Western District has never been one of those neighbourhoods.
While you are right on response times your post is misleading. The reason they can’t respond to a call in canton faster than the west side is because crime is wayyyyy lower in canton. So cops aren’t on a ton of others calls tied up 24/7. It proves a solid point of Mine. . . That is….. the ppl who complain about police the most also use and call them the most. There are way more calls in the western districts than the good neighborhoods and districts. That’s all there is to it. It isn’t some race based policing or a mystery as to why. It’s common sense And I suggest you use it. But I doubt that or else you wouldn’t vote for little Brandon and his clown posse
I would agree with you except for one fact. 9 cops in a high crime area when they say 12 are needed doesn't sound bad till you see thirty plus in fells point every weekend night. They make sure the donors and their own are safe the rest of us. Have been left to fend for ourselves. They made sure we don't have the weapons the criminals do. Smh@thereisnosuchthingasanativ904
I would get on the mayor big-time he’s busy cutting ribbons and talking about building himself a new office building costing millions of dollars when he should be putting policeman on the street for millions of dollars, but he doesn’t think like that he’s an idiot.
I travel for a living out of all the city’s I have been too Baltimore was the craziest. They robbed out site 3 times trailer stolen . Not Chicago not Detroit not Huston not anywhere but Baltimore
But the kid mayor said crime is down and we should just keep giving money to his friends in MONSE without accountability and everything will be fine. What gives?
West Baltimore has no jobs. Houses falling apart for decades. Schools that have been unfunded for decades. Lead in drinking water and in housing. No real drug treatment. No place to get healthy food. Parents that send their children to the same unfunded Schools. With too many kids in the class room and teachers overwhelmed by low pay and a school system that does not support them. A shortage of police officers. This has been West Baltimore since the late 60s. This is not new and no Mayor can solve the problems over night because they didn't just start. Unless their is real funding in these disinvested areas. There will be no change in the crime because the conditions that started the issues still exist.
Starting around 150k for Baltimore City with a take home vehicle would help solve their hiring crisis. Currently not worth considering when you can make the same not risking your life.
Money doesn't determine the quality of an officer or the effectiveness of the BPD. Regardless of salary, benefits, incentives, or promotions, not everyone is cut out to be a law enforcement officer.
@1300mikehoward Money 100% does affect it, this isn't a movie bro. Nobody gets a job for the pride while getting paid less than a McDonald's manager unless they are insane. Then again maybe you have a point because most cops have a superiority complex.
Baltimore you got what you deserve keep voting the same idiots in office and let juveniles do what they want and do nothing to them. Scott is a poor excuse for a mayor and a person he doesn't give a dam about what's happening he's getting a nice pay check to do nothing!!!!
OMG why would you let the general public, especially criminals living in that area, know that there are basically no cops on duty over there!? Its up now!
Even the cat looks scared. Baltimore is a shit show and has been for years. We need a stern D.A. We need a new juvenile justice department and harsher laws on juvenile criminals and a huge drug task force and we need long hard jail sentences. We have none of that. Democrats in Annapolis have failed the state. Wake up Maryland! Vote Red and we can fix this.
@dapa6509 - Your statement makes it painfully clear that investing in education, jobs, trades, and affordable housing for citizens would be far more beneficial than investing in prisons.
Baltimore City will need to increase the age allowed to be officers. If that doesn't work, they'll need to do like Chicago and other places. Allow non-Citizens LPRs to becomes cops. Even in places that allow this, they still can't seem to hire enough cops in certain places.
It doesn’t seem to be working in Chicago, so it’s hard to believe it would be successful in Baltimore. Unlike Chicago, Baltimore has its own distinct culture and has never been known for unity-Charm City operates very differently.
Mayor Scott is doing a bang up job! Keep voting him into office Baltimore! Maybe one day before hell freezes over you will wise up.
👀
Reap what you sow! Voting for corruption has consequences!
Who would have thought that the unbridled campaign to vilify the police and excuse “teen” behavior would cause something like this??
Baltimore residents voted for this.
So somehow Republicans will change this? Trump called Baltimore a cess pool and it was no different when he was in office
And the criminals know this.
Maybe the problem is that the majority of those that live in the area are criminals? Even in the 80's when I was growing up, I was always told to stay away from that area or I might get shot.
Yet the City Council was Voting on banning Gasoline Powered Lawn Care Equipment!
That's the entire state. Relax

Voting for PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRATS leads to these problems 😊
Not a word from the Mayor! But Baltimore idiots will vote him back in anyway.
Because they like the freebies and the money! $$$$$$$
Call in the fed's.
the feds been here goofy ass they not going stop shit dont nobody give a fuck about them
Who wants to work a dangerous job where the people above you sell you out and throw you under the bus at every opportunity?
I wouldn’t.
Why are they asking people to work overtime instead of hiring more officers? Is it because of the budget or because people don’t want the job?
Baltimore City. Both. There are alot of people who don't want to be a cop in Baltimore City because of the low pay. They'd rather work for the state police or the surrounding counties.
The other problem is that on any given day, you have 700 police officers on suspension for misconduct.
@@nieshamccoy9419 it's the same here in Ohio. Interesting similarities
But is it really misconduct? I disagree I think it’s fake outrage and over reach that causes the majority of bad police officers’ records.
Call the sheriff and state troopers
National guard
Black water private army …. They need mercenaries not weekend warriors. No offense to guard members ….
You got gang bangers that bust their guns more often than guard members.
This is a problem way over Baltimore’s head. They need more serious help
Why would any officer ever get out of the police car?
All the cops should just quit and let that City sort itself out start over again
Yes. That's the best idea I've heard yet.
Hell tes, I'd say Peace Out Bitches......
Thought defunding the police was a good idea…
But they didn't get defunded..
@@SlimReaper320
And you believe it would help?......
@@sherrieflynn252 They didn't defund. What they did was tie the cops hands so they can't do the job they were hired for.
@@crabjoe I know...
Keep putting these same looser in office
The city hasn't hire more officers because the mayor thinks that safe streets is the answer
Put the white shirts out there!!
This is everyday in the western. My husband is forced to stay every other day for a mandatory 5 additional hours because they-don’t have the staffing. Brandon Scott needs to address this and they need to increase the pay so officers want to work and stay in Baltimore !
Just great tell all the crooks that you guys are under staffed😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
City Shouted to Defund the police now no police answer call
Easy fix create better incentives, put white shirts on the streets, review your hiring policies

I do understand the cops they keep arrested in the same people over and over they go in front of them judges and they turn around and let them go.
That's part of the problem. The other part is that they've tied the hands of cops so they can't do the job they were hired for. If you speak with any cops that have retired, they'll tell you flat out they'd never be a cop in Baltimore these days because they don't have the same authority as in the past.
The days of big city police, big jails and big prosecutions are over.
Sounds like purge is coming
You think crime just fell out of a coconut tree?
_heehaw heehaw_

And the city voted Demorat again unbelievable
I have a great idea!!! hire more liberal DA's!!!! problem solved!!!

They spent all the money on them new dodge Durangos 😂
This is sad for a major city to have such little police coverage

That is sad, it’s a free for all
Refund Police.
There was a decline.. it's obviously a cultural issue.
Polishing up 💩 so lieutenants become majors, majors become colonels, and the mayor becomes governor
So when should they stop paying taxes ???
Defund the police Huh???
Sounds like Baltimore is turning into California smfh

How much are taxes in this area? Anything over 0 is too much!
It's a sad sad situation in Baltimore'around the country playin with our lives

Hold on! Joey &Kammy Lala's super duper government swears there's no crime. Why would you need more cops. Unless they are lying.
The issue goes beyond just the criminals-it includes those who wear uniforms as well. Charm City needs real police, not just criminals in uniforms.
6 Police officers for the entire city for the evening shift oh hell no, what if 10 people need help? What kind of first world problems is this?

Not the answer

Yea.... How's your mayor working out???😂
What happened to "Defund DUH POPO, FK DUH POPO DEFUND DUH POLICE", When the chyt starts landing on their doorsteps they want the police
Need to figure out how to recruit more officers or the criminals will continue to run the city.
Don’t be scared now!
I thought police was the problem 🤷🏾♂️😆
Who wants to be a cop with how cops act these days come on don't act like we all don't know this
Lol this is why i left , they like this , thats why they keep voting Democrat
