Baltimore is seeing the cityβs fewest homicides in 50 years. Hereβs why.
Multiple people have taken credit for the historic drop that mirrors a national decrease in violent crimes. Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott says itβs due to a community-based approach to gun violence.
#Baltimore Mayor #BrandonScott invested in 42 summer youth camps, 29 literacy programs, extended the rec center hours to 11 p.m, planned block parties, opened the pools for safe fun, & opened several schools up for summer classes. Crime is down 62%. π₯π₯ www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

βGender-criticalβ transphobes apparently protested outside the Womenβs League Cup final against a player who was not playing in the game, was not even in the country and who is cis.
It turns out she is a bit masculine looking and black.
Scratch a βgender-criticalβ transphobe and a racist bleeds.
