This is what you voted for, Baltimore

City Journal: "Anatomy of a Crime Wave - Baltimore’s experiment with de-policing has been disastrous—and deadly."

A decade ago, Baltimoreans became lab rats in a fateful experiment: their elected officials decided to treat the city’s long-running crime problem with many fewer cops. In effect, Baltimore began to defund its police and engage in de-policing long before those terms gained popular currency.

This experiment has been an abject failure. Since 2011, nearly 3,000 Baltimoreans have been murdered—one of every 200 city residents over that period. The annual homicide rate has climbed from 31 per 100,000 residents to 56—ten times the national rate. And 93 percent of the homicide victims of known race over this period were black.

Whatever you do, Baltimore, don't stop voting for the same politicians who perpetuate the same policies, while running a side hustle.  Same with you, Chicago.
