Horowitz: Baltimore’s coronavirus plan: Free criminals & beg killers to stop killing
Daniel Horowitz · March 19, 2020
Baltimore’s plan to combat the coronavirus? Release different scum into the streets and ask nicely that they behave.
Baltimore is experiencing a different type of epidemic, one that is about to get worse during the China virus epidemic. The record homicides in 2019 have spilled over into 2020, and now the city’s mayor, Jack Young, has a novel approach to end the bloodshed. He is begging the gangsters and street thugs to suspend their day job of target practice on city streets in order to free up bed space for potential coronavirus patients.
Following the murder of seven people in a shootout downtown on Tuesday night, WJZ13 reported that Young had a message for the city’s murderers. “We cannot clog up our hospitals and their beds with people that are being shot senselessly because we’re going to need those beds for people infected with the coronavirus,†pleaded the mayor. “And it could be your mother, your grandmother or one of your relatives. So take that into consideration.â€
Wow, why have we never thought of this brilliant idea? If we only had asked them nicely!
The problem is that his plea rings hollow, as Baltimore officials are joining other blue cities in publicly announcing to criminals that they will not be arrested for numerous crimes. Now, there will be even less of a deterrent for criminals than even before, particularly with few witnesses on the streets and numerous vacant stores to loot.
On the same day Mayor Young issued his impassioned plea to suspend the murders, the city’s infamous prosecutor, Marilyn Mosby, announced that she would be dismissing pending criminal charges for the following offenses: possession of drugs including heroin, attempted distribution of any drug, prostitution, trespassing, minor traffic offenses, open container, and urinating in public.
