Simply because I agree with the statements made by Mayor Martin O'Malley. To tell you the truth, I have been known to say a few expletives now and then myself. I think the majority of people do, and it is about time someone expressed how the people of this city feel without any false pretense. Maybe now the city's prosecutors will get up off their collective asses and actually do something to improve this city. I think the mayor said what we were all thinking at the time.
Most people use a pistol to shoot themselves in the foot.
Only Wiley Hall would use a shotgun to blow it off. I normally don't agree with what he has to write, but his opinion in Urban Rhythms about Mayor O'Malley and the citizens of Baltimore is out of line and is very difficult to ignore. It didn't happen, due to African-American voter apathy. And of those African-Americans who did vote in the primary, a full third of them voted for O'Malley anyway. O'Malley has worked hard to get this city up and running again.
