Baltimore Remains a Dystopian Inferno of Crime
Posted On 27 Jul 2022
Nearly never a night goes by these days that doesn’t turn into a blood bath in blue-run cities like Baltimore. Now, recent statistics show that murder is not the only crime on the rise that Baltimore residents have to worry about. Carjackings are also up a disturbing amount, and even more troubling, increasingly, women seem to be the target of these gun-toting car thieves.
One such woman Monica Holland shared her near-death experience with would-be carjackers with Fox News. She says many others in her neighborhood have similar terrifying tales.
Holland is ringing the alarm over the surge of carjackings throughout the city, with many of the crimes committed in her neighborhood.
“It’s not only me, it’s happening to other people. But they’re scared to come forward, I’m not. I’m ready to tell and face whoever it is because they need to be arrested,” said Holland.
Holland is the victim of an attempted carjacking by two masked men in front of her home on Chatford Avenue three weeks ago. She revealed the chilling circumstances of the incident to FOX 45.
“He told the other boy that was standing outside, kill her yo. And he put the gun inside of my window and clicked it to try to kill me, and the gun jammed,” said Holland as she describes being face-to-face with the suspects’ guns. “I thought they were going to kidnap me or kill me anyway, either way, if I got out the car, they were going to harm me. If I stayed in my car they were going to harm me, which tried to happen,” she added.
According to police, carjackings were up 71 percent in the first three weeks of this year in the city that borders Washington DC, with 351 reported now citywide. Most of them happen in BPD’s Northeastern District, where Holland lives, with 77 carjackings reported.
Baltimore City Councilwoman Danielle McCray represents the area where Holland lives. FOX45 News wanted to know what is she doing about the problem.
The FOX affiliate said that they emailed questions, including what steps have you taken in addressing this issue? Have you been in contact with police commanders in your district about the matter? And if so, what steps, if any, are police in your district taking to control carjackings in the area?
As of this writing, the station still had not received a reply from McCray.
Meanwhile, Holland believes there’s something residents can do to help combat the crime and catch the criminals.
“If everybody come out and speak out and speak up, maybe a lot can get done, said Holland. “It’s nothing getting done because people thinking if you go to the news if you go to the police you snitching. No, you’re not snitching, you’re coming forward and you’re ready to face those individual that’s doing this critical stuff out here to people.”
Baltimore police have said part of their plan includes increasing coordination with federal law enforcement to investigate and disrupt this rash of violent carjackings.
As usual, Democratic Governors of blue states, when they cannot control crime, they turn to the federal government for help.
When we close all usa prisions and put all prisoners on 1M acres in the southwest,surrounded by & above an electronic fence then we might do away with crime.
The defund the police isn’t the single reason that crime is historically rising in blue states. Its cases like George Floyd and Michael Brown, where the Democratic Communist Party and their colluding mainstream news outlets withhold and lie about what actually occurred.
Because of the lies by cop hating liberals and Democrats, most police officers are only handling calls for service and they are no longer doing proactive police work. Criminals walking around armed with a gun no longer have to worry about being stopped by a police officer. The officers on patrol also know that the dirt-bag they arrest will be released from jail before they finish their paperwork!
Maybe people aren’t coming forward because they know the justice system in their lib state will have the thug car jackers back out on the street within 24 hours. These people are happy they survived the car jacking why would they put themselves in danger knowing these thugs could possibly come after them after their 24 hour stint in jail. Now what the residents should do in this neighborhood is get all the voting people together that have had it with rampant crime and tell the democrats you voted into office YOU’RE DONE WITH THE CRIME IN YOUR COMMUNITY, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT OR WE ARE VOTING YOU OUT”. The people in these neighborhoods don’t even know the power they have in numbers. People just sitting back isn’t going to make your neighborhood better, threatening your local politicians will.
It’s time a Federal “Clean It Up” Program is finally needed in all of the “Inner-Cities” high crime areas.
When a majority of these thugs are either arrested and/or killed as a “full push by the both local / state / federal authorities”, the crime will continue.
If there is no fear of punishment / death, it will just keep going on and on and on.
Funny how violent crime is highest in blue cities and states that have the strictest gun control laws. Maybe it’s because – get this – laws only affect people who are willing to obey them. And that does NOT mean the criminals! When law-abiding citizens can freely arm themselves, you have a much smaller pool of easy victims!
I’m sick and tired of how ghetto blacks are getting away with their crap mentality and violence.
I agree that the woke libs and media do not tell the full story and the police get the bad rap.
Scum bags like George Floyd are made hero’s , WTF!
Then his family gets rewarded with $$$. That’s so messed up!
Let’s put the parasites invading our country in these scum bag blue cities and let them fight it out. Kinda like DC!
