More thoughts on Baltimore

One would first of all figure that someone who had worked for 20 years in the South Side of Chicago might figure out that all the money and "help" we've poured in there wasn't exactly working out for people here.  But evidently I am too optimistic in that regard.

On the flip side, it's worth noting that nothing the KKK ever did ever came close to the nastiness of what the Nation of Islam just did to Baltimore; bring in thugs from three different street gangs to terrorize the city.  The KKK and related bigots lynched about 3400 people in the South over the course of a century.  The Crips, Bloods, "Black Gorillas", and other street gangs kill about that many blacks every year.

With friends like the Nation of Islam, who needs enemies?
