This Could Not Possibly Be True

There have already been 104 homicides in Baltimore this year, 47 more than at the same time last year, with the victims almost exclusively black. How can this be? There is not a single Confederate flag flying over ANY government building anywhere in the state of Maryland — or in nearby D.C.; Robert E. Lee Park is being renamed; and Lee’s statue has been vandalized. Logic suggests that this simply should not happen. Everyone knows that the main cause of black homicides is white people who are whipped up into a murderous frenzy upon viewing a Confederate flag.
