that ongoing legacy of slavery

Quote
It seemed like everything was going to be great after Mosby told the cops to stop policing the city.  After all, all the cops were doing was oppressing the innocent natives – systematically oppressing them – out of hate for the color of their skin.

But it turns out – and no one could have seen this coming – that when you remove policing from a majority Black city, they all start shooting each other.

Don’t let the racists convince you this situation is hilarious.  You have to view this in the context of slavery 200 years ago, and then feel guilty about it.

CBS Baltimore:

Police say 28 people were shot, 9 of them killed over this weekend, adding to the  record-breaking violence.

The shooting didn’t stop on Monday night after a 9-year-old boy and another man were both injured by gun fire in the 2900 block of Arunah Avenue. Police say the child was shot in the leg and another man suffered a graze wound to the head.



Councilmember Mary Pat Clarke links the violence to a city still reeling from weeks of unrest.

“It was an earthquake kind of time and i think we’re still dealing with the aftershock,” she says.



WJZ media partner The Baltimore Sun reports 35 people have been killed so far in May making it the deadliest month in Baltimore since December of 1999. Some say the 3-day surge of violence may be a sign of a police department stretched too thin.

Be radical, have principles, be absolute, be that which the bourgeoisie calls an extremist: give yourself without counting or calculating, don't accept what they call ‘the reality of life' and act in such a way that you won't be accepted by that kind of ‘life', never abandon the principle of struggle.

Post-riots, homicides in Baltimore skyrocket
This past month was the worst month for murder in twenty years.

Two people were fatally shot in separate incidents early Monday, continuing a run of violence in the city over the Memorial Day weekend.
The two killings increased this month's homicide total to 35 – Baltimore's deadliest month since 1999. There have been 108 homicides in the city this year.

Looks like the homicide detectives will be working long hours for many months to come.

Nothing changed since The Wire...

Is it gang related, they didn't said anything about that in the video?
