Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake has fired Police Commissioner Anthony Batts due to the surge on violence and crime in that city following their recent race riots.
COMMENTS:
It was Blake who ordered the cops to “stand down” during the
riots and it is the prosecutor who is grossly mishandling charges against six
cops. The police forces, feeling hung out to dry by their city leaders, have
evidently been reluctant to put their lives on the line to arrest criminals
because they’re afraid of ending up in jail themselves. The local FOPs, (Fraternal Order of Police),
have also been less than supportive of the police during this turmoil and now the
Mayor, under criticism for her leadership or lack thereof, has elected to make
Batts the scapegoat. Now, I’m not
standing up for Batts, because I’m not privy to the details, but given the
chain of events, I have to wonder if Baltimore will ever manage to have a decent police force again. Where’s Al Sharpton now?
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Greece is in a meltdown and China’s markets are
tumbling. What does all of this mean for
us, as our markets are falling? (Li ~
San Francisco, CA)
A. Fear not; ObamaMan is coming to the rescue. He’s been calling around to other nations and
offering his economic advice on the matter.
I’ve said before in this blog that Obama would offer up some of your
money to help Greece out, and I think he will.
That’ll give him another excuse to gut the military budget some
more. Thank God he’s here on the scene;
he’s proven himself to be such a formidable economic genius... hasn't he?
Q. I understand a federal agent’s gun was used in the San
Francisco killing? Garland ~ Santa Fe,
NM)
A. That’s what the current story is. I wonder what the odds
are that the gun originated in the Fast & Furious gun-running scandal.
Q. There’s a guy in Montana who wants the okay to have two
wives. He says he’ll sue the state if
his request is denied. Where is all of
this going to lead? (Leonora ~ Page, AZ)
A. How can you deny the request? That would be discriminatory because, nowhere
in the Constitution does it say you can’t have more than one wife. I don’t think he should be allowed to have
guns, however; any man who wants two wives has got to be crazier than a hoot
owl.
