Man shot near Mondawmin Mall in West Baltimore

[BlandFood]

What is before my time?
It wasn't bad in the 70's or 60's

Edmonson Village went down the tubes with White Flight in the 50's and 60's, Mondawmin followed a decade or so later. :shrug: WITH bars

Shameful huh? Probably not, never mind.

The area around Mondowmin Mall has always been unsafe after dark.

No it hasn't.....

Wes is quite right.

MONDAWMIN IS ALWAYS A WAR ZONE: Daytime; nighttime; weekends; weekdays.

how so??

it has a higher crime rate than the rest of Baltimore City

Tell them that.

Woodlawn's next on the claimed territories list, if it isn't already.

"War Zone," huh? I think "war zone" is pretty over-the-top hyperbole, but I'll admit the Target store there does seem to need a uniformed officer at the door, while other Targets apparently don't. That said --- I've never witnessed any mortars being fired, machine gun fire, or even small caliber handgun fire on my dozens and dozens and dozens of visits (been going there several times a week for many many months, ever since it opened). I see lots and lots of shoppers who quite frankly don't resemble what one would think of as the typical Mondawmin resident (read: people who look more like they're coming from Bolton Hill, or even Roland Park), too, who apparently have no issue going there without flak jackets, full body armor, or sidearms....

Lies! Again, Mondawmin is a "pretty solidly middle class area." It's the Howard County of Baltimore City. Well, at least the local tax rate is the same.

The Mall in Columbia can only dream of being as safe and inviting as Mondawmin Mall.

Well now that you mention it...

Two robberies and two attempted robberies were reported at the Columbia mall within the span of 43 hours, and Howard County police are investigating whether some or all of the incidents are related.

I went to that Target about a month ago and there was some light artillery fire. But nothing too bad.

I thought that all area malls like Arundel Mills, Columbia, Eastpoint, Marley Station, Mondawin, Security Square and White Marsh were 100% safe and crime-free. Good thing you found that link from almost a year ago to prove just how dangerous Columbia Mall is.

By the way, your link had a few details about that crime spree left out. I did find one that had a little more information in it.

I was there last month I saw a guy carrying a rocket launcher. Or it could have been an umbrella, I think it had rained that day

The details you're most concerned with of course. Just say what you mean from the jump. Thanks for playing along

Yes, details that include more information about the specific locations of the crimes as well as a more information about the people who are committing them. This type of information is useful since mall patrons can use it to exercise more vigilance.

I suppose that you have a problem with police providing this kind of information?

Uhh..huh... we believe you..

Even the ebil white debil hasn't invented a credible time machine yet.

You are what you say are. Roll this Devil %&&F$@SXU&P:

Again, that nasty truth. Some just don't have it in them to behave.

[BlandFood]

You sound angry, remember the sights are to be held at 12 O'clock, not 3 & 6 and the pointy end towards the enemy. Call this a free lesson.

Well, at least you're honest about what it's all about with you...just wish yuca would be as up front. It's not in him...

Maybe it was a fly rod case?

Whats to hide? Again numbers don't lie..... the solution, poverty breeds animal behavior, welfare is no more than the plantation mentality to perpetuate the problem for votes and when 75% aren't born bastards only THEN will there be hope for the majority of blacks. It's sad, not all blacks fit that mold and I'm certain there is a lot of embarrassment among them.

If you're claiming it isn't the opposite with you it's obvious you can't handle the truth.

Could you try that again in standard English please?

WHat??

WTH??
