"Urban Youth". I think we know what that means...

Edit. This copter pilot is not nearly as supportive of the middle ground news reporting mentality. He wants the cops to wreck shop.

someone on the forums here posted that if you want to have some fun at target, fill up a grocery cart with tide and walk around the store for a while. soon you'll hear the code words over the intercom for "hey someone is gonna try to steal poo poo" and a gaggle of people following you

It's one of the most-stolen items, simply because people can resell it really easily and it's easily identifiable by being in the red bottles.

I was downtown last night for a baseball game. It was pretty quiet all things considered, couldn't really tell something had happened the night before. Kinda weird, I figured the extent of this was gonna be on Saturday night.

Kooler than Jesus
My stepdad got arrested in Baltimore once. Spent a few months in prison and was never actually charged with anything and it doesn't even show in his records. He was black out drunk got into a fight and was told he laid out a cop who tried to break it up. This was some time in the 70s I think.

Some parts of Baltimore are actually fun, and used to be gentrified. Probably no way I'm ever going to use street parking at night again though.
