Paging Elijah Cummings: Your Shithole of Crime Spares No One, Including Your Deputy Police Commissioner

From The New York Post

You’re not in Louisiana anymore.

A new deputy police commissioner in Baltimore got a firsthand lesson in the city’s crime problems — getting robbed at gunpoint while out with his wife, according to reports.

Deputy Commissioner Daniel Murphy had only started with the force in April after being brought in from New Orleans to help lead sweeping reforms, according to the Baltimore Sun.

He was robbed at 9 p.m. Friday by four men in a white SUV near Patterson Park, according to the Sun.

Two of the men, said to be about 18, jumped out and approached Murphy and his wife, showing a gun during the holdup, police said in a release.

They fled with multiple cellphones, the officer’s wallet and his wife’s purse as well as some cash, the reports state. No one was injured, police say.

Murphy was one of the first top deputies hired earlier this year by new Commissioner Michael Harrison after they worked together in New Orleans, according to the Sun.

He was sure that Baltimore would be like the Big Easy, he told the paper after starting his new gig in April.

“Obviously, every community, every police department is unique, but the success we had in New Orleans is directly transferable to here and we will modify it as necessary,” he said.

The robbery came just a month after the department launched a new “crime reduction strategy” that it said would “reduce the victimization and fear of victimization of violent crime in Baltimore City.”

There have been 185 homicides in the city so far this year, with 166 from shootings, according to the Sun, with only St. Louis having more murders per 100,000 people, according to a Pew Research Center study based on 2017 figures.

The culprits have been caught:

Kathree Fowlkes and Kamal Godwin

Baltimore has a black police chief, a black mayor, a black city council, and 63.3% of the population in Baltimore is black.  The Democrats have controlled America’s major urban areas for almost half a century. It’s a symbiotic relationship; they maintain power through the victimization of minorities.

What could go wrong?

Oh, and Murphy doesn’t bother to carry a badge or a gun.  He may as well wear a fucking neon sign that reads: “Easy Target”.
