From a friend who works and lives in Downtown Baltimore:
I’m sure they had already made thedecision to move to the county and the crime is just a convenient excuse. You don’t just up and decide to move a business one week.
The sad thing is, crime really is down. But 6 or 7 innocent white people were beaten up, so now everyone suddenly cares about what is going on.
Case in point: last night two 17yo kids were murdered and there was a 5 line article today and metrocrime stoppers is offering a 2k award for tips.
A pit bull was set ablaze last week, and people across the country pictched in 23k, 4 articles and one front page feature were written, and the officer that tried to save the dog received a commendation.
The difference? The dog wasn’t a poor black kid.
