    Baltimore's drop in homicides - 23% since last year and a staggering 40% from two years ago - should be a national story. Mayor Scott's Group Violence Reduction Strategy, which prioritizes resources to those most at risk and community engagement, should be studied and replicated.

    Baltimore City's Western District, once the city's most violent, where @MayorBMScott piloted his Gun Violence Reduction Strategy, has not had a single homicide this year.

    Here’s a clue: The all-time high was in 1993 (353).

    Is this planned yet? Time to fill the streets in every city demanding that Trump step down or be ousted. The hour is getting late.

    "Study after study shows how the media’s overemphasis on crime makes people feel less safe than they really are and negatively shapes public policy around the criminal-legal system. And study after study shows that it’s racist and inhumane." @baltimoresun niemanlab.org/2020/12/defund…
