Spoiled Hampdenites don’t get what they want and throw a fit, trash their supposedly progressive values and resort to ableist and ageist insults because boo fucking hoo they don’t have another place for their dogs to take a shit. Big surprise.

>And I take exception to people dismissing their needs as defects rather than accommodations for our neighbors

I agree that people who can't drive down the block and turn around are defective.

Good

And I believe the speed cameras don’t trigger until 12 over so at that point it’s really on you for speeding

I care about the mobility of my neighbors. And I take exception to people dismissing their needs as defects rather than accommodations for our neighbors. And I’m 34. I just possess a modicum of decency and concern for the welfare and safety of others.

The ability to do something and the safety of doing it are also two different things. But I understand that the 20 something gentrifiers in surrounding neighborhoods who don’t actually live in this neighborhood feel incredibly entitled to lecture to the folks who have lived here forever because “green space”.

You think people who aren't capable of turning right.... should drive? Okay boomer

This is incredibly ageist and ableist.

Council President Nick Mosby is above her, his ethics are definitely questionable. I called his office over two years ago when we first started seeing the results of all the preferential treatment. I never received a response. The grifters go all the way to the top. I know multiple areas of the neighborhood received help directly from the mayor’s office on specific issues. I believe this situation is one we have to vote our way out of. We just have to vote better, unless someone else has ideas.

Much appreciated.

Agreed! Many people don't realize that identifying as black is NOT an admissions criteria. I've seen all kinds of students at HBCUs, including international students. The students who actually attend don't care. Very few probably even bothered to vote for Miss Coppin State.

It's also...confusing because whiteness and Blackness are peculiarly constructed in North America. Hispanic and Latine are not races in the United States. I've seen white Latines say they're not white, but most native Latines I know think that's ridiculous and erases very real racial divisions across the Americas.

There has to be someone above her that has the authority to put an end to those "special deals". Not to mention she should be removed immediately for that foolishness as well.

What really kills me about this city is how easy it is to be unethical here. There aren't many checks and balances and that's something that's been going on for decades and needs to stop.

I agree, but dealt with by whom? It sounded like the people at the neighborhood meeting already reported it to DPW. Our own neighborhood group is defunct because of the village of Violetville group the councilwoman created. I don’t know what other type of representative would help. It highlights the need to have ethical people in elected positions, the wrong people do the wrong thing and it negatively impacts the entire area.

The nightly drug fueled larceny rampage is pretty fun

OK that absolves them of physically taking over much of the east side of the city, with an interest in taking over more, paying no taxes, being a large slumlord, killing off most possibility of development in the east side as no one wants to invest only to have them take over.

While I couldn’t care less about this topic, I can’t say I’m surprised. A lot of black people in baltimore are prejudiced towards non blacks.

Our Xfinity bill increased by about 15 % in each of the past two years. It enrages me.

The random anonymous public. Now, and forever. 🤷‍♀️

I'll have to try again. I ended up going to Cozy Corner and LOVED it!

hopkins pays its fair share 10 fold in other ways. perhaps your animosity is better directed towards the actual money drains that plague this city, not the institutions that are a net positive. or continue to hate on big businesses. that goes well. pandora and the likes will be laughing at you on their way out to NYC

I'm stuck on why do they even have a Miss Coppin State University? Isn't this supposed to be a school, like where people go to learn important things? It sounds like a joke.

To be fair, they aren't exactly broke and they have a large footprint in the city.

Both can take place and it would be fine for them.

Ok make the county residents pay for their share of the water. We know what the problem is clearly so it's a matter of actually doing something about it

I just checked a few days ago and the site said there was no openings available.

I'll double check that in a bit and see what happens
