The point is clear the police withdrawing has not improved things. The solution clearly lies elsewhere. And the 2015 riots did not make anything better.

- throwanem 6y agoWell, now you're just reiterating things you've already said and failed to support the first time. I guess that means we're done here.
- yters 6y agoI showed the crime rates went up after the riots because the police have stopped actively cleaning up crime. You never showed how the supporting evidence is wrong, nor why my inference was incorrect. You mainly nitpicked insignificant details. I would be genuinely interested if you can show violent riots have made life better for law abiding citizens in Baltimore.
- yters 6y agolook, i get the point that riots draw attention and show people are fed up. that makes sense but, in baltimore that just led to lax police, more crime, and more homicides i believe the same will happen with these riots. police will withdraw from blac neighborhoods, and the criminal element will have free reign. that is a bad outcome, and more innocent people will suffer than will benefit we are trying to make life better for innocent black people, but being scared of the neighborhood gang bangers is not a step up from being scared of the police and this will not bring justice for the victims, police may throw some sacrifices, but they otherwise will just be less caring about black neighborhoods and police mistreatment of black people, and the gulf will widen
