Identity theft is not a joke, Jim! Millions of families suffer every year!

Not that I disagree with your sentiment but local police don't deal with identity theft. If your identity is stolen, contact the Federal Trade Commission.

Financial Literacy doesn't have anything to do with stretching a buck. Look up Maryland HB0985 Del. Walker has been trying for years to put it through. Hopefully, he gets it through this year.

70 years of disrespect of teachers? Right now the teachers are underappreciated, under paid, and over worked. Not only that the school system doesn't provide them with adequate supplies. 30 years ago when a student messed up in class it was the students fault. Now it's the teachers being blamed by the parents and the administration backing up the parents. We have a couple of generations of entitled kids with a lack of accountability. Administrations need to back up the teacher and when the student is in the wrong it needs to acknowledged.

Government assistance is designed to keep people enslaved/dependent on the program and to keep supporting whoever is feeding the individual. They know people aren't going to bite the hand that feeds them.

Sorry I use "buzzwords". I don't have time to type up full detailed plans. I'm hoping folks can get a general idea. How the dots are connected I'll leave to you.

Article omits 800-car garage that’s part of the developer's TOD plan

I think a lot of it has to do with the congregations moving out of those neighborhoods, but wanting to be at the same church. It feels like this hits the headlines more with Black churches. But that's probably because the equivalent White Churches/Congregations did their flight far enough back in time that they could buy suburban land for a new church building.

DC has seen massive fights regrading Sunday parking. It's basically older black residents and families vs the new neighborhood residents (re: gentrification).

They have an uphill battle with the police. They have the manpower to pull me over for a taillight out, but tell me they aren't going to do shit about someone stealing my identity and trying to open a bank account down the street from a police station with a bank fully willing to cooperate with them? Fuck these dicks.

Hereford HS was my football rival. >:( Screw them cowtippers!

Noise rock/experimental show at the Depot on saturday. Come through

I’ve always went during the day and not bad at all. I’d assume it gets pretty crazy in there for eagles games.

"Financial literacy" sounds like a fancy way to blame poor people for not being able to stretch a dollar to cover $100 of expenses. Magically have people respect teachers- I'd love to hear your plan to undo 70 years of making education a political battlefield. Give kids a second home and be their parents, but let parents be parents? Reform government systems to further punish single parents instead of eliminating the benefits cliff?

You have a lot of buzzwords but not a lot of substance.

Not low pay. Three times what a city social worker gets after 10 years of schooling and clinical. I consider $125k a pretty Penny.

1. calls to defund the police were also called for by social workers and those in the state social services too. Who are bleeding and desperate for funds

2. education costs WAY more in impoverished places. Now I’m not saying we don’t have a skimming problem. But poor areas need more funds per kid it’s just reality. They need more meals. The schools need more repairs. There needs to be staffing incentives. There needs to be bonus and after hours programs etc etc.

It might be a hot take but a lot of the problems in Baltimore, minority communities, and many cities across the country would be solved by a bottom up solution rather than top-down one

The city can pour millions of dollars in any program or such for policing, education, parks and recs, and such but that still doesn't address the culture that a lot of the people from these high crime areas come from. Does Baltimore have a robust outreach program that can address the dysfunction and trauma that some of these people come from? I'm gonna look into it myself...

Addressing these issues with policy, and funding, and whatever else more so feel like band aides and covering up larger issues that are very complex...

If its a bottom-up solution, then that would be people getting into the neighborhoods, locally organized groups and such, but it seems like a cyclical problem when a lot of people who are either from the areas or the city/state in general might not even wanna try going there and doing work. Like wasn't a dude who was working close in the area shot a few years back?

I suppose either/or wont work...I feel like a mix of these band aide government solutions and local organization would do the trick...but thats over years. Baltimore didn't become this way over night and we can't expect change over night either...not without displacing a bunch of people at least

No because I have never taken to this strange crabs in a bucket mindset that is so prevalent in this country of spending my time becoming enraged at some lowly fucker for getting something I didn't think they deserved. Also I didn't grow up here.

Fun fact. There used to be a stone “spite” wall on the property. Google it.

Nimbys at it again

I bought a small house on the west side of falls when I was 24. Never felt unsafe there. It was great. It’s more green than the east side of falls. I had a huge backyard that had beautiful sunset views over tv hill.

Owning can be expensive. You might get hit with a repair that could be thousands of dollars, so you have to be prepared for that. You need a bigger emergency fund.

Ultimately buying young worked out for me. I had a lot of equity in the home when I ultimately sold, but naturally with all investments YMMV.

my money's on the church that wants the lot for parking.

haha yeah - also people that think the Hereford Zone is in Harford County...or is the Harford County Zone.

I'll try them out. Went there for brunch once, and the wait staff was super rude/grumpy and thee food wasn't that great, but maybe it was an off day.

Been there the Eagles vs 49ers, and it was a shitshow in there. If it's not that crazy usually, I'd give them a try.
