    $6,800,000,000 spent on policing in Baltimore since 1998. $6.8 BILLION. It's improved nothing. Nothing at all. Staggering.https://twitter.com/jemillerwbal/status/827569386982633472 …

        It's almost like the solution isn't more police but to combat the underlying issues of poverty and institutionalize racism...

        I blame McNulty. But seriously everyone should watch the Wire.

        Crime will go down when they start to invest that $6.8B in housing & education programs. But it's more fun to "police" than actually help.

        The Wire pretty much said that...along with literally every crime study that ties crime to environmental factors not police effectiveness.

        Of course not. We're not addressing the underlying problems, only sending cops in to deal w/ the consequences of structural problems.

        Biggest threat to minorities are other minorities. Until they put the guns down nothing will change. Tired of all the excuses
