WHAT ABOUT BALTIMORE?

This week, Governor Moore signed Senate Bill 1. It is a highly questionable and very likely unconstitutional bill aimed at LEGAL gun owners. The governor continues to use the gun violence in Maryland as justification for this bill.

But what about Baltimore?

Baltimore City continues to lead the state in murders, violent crimes, aggravated assaults, and the list goes on. As bad as that sounds, it does not mean Baltimore should be ignored. There is crime all over the state of Maryland, but we know it is heavily concentrated in this city.

That means more resources and help should be focused right here in Baltimore where it is needed the most. Our elected officials should not be afraid to acknowledge what many people in Baltimore live through every single day. It's time to stop playing politics and start finding solutions to the real problems facing our city.
