The city of Baltimore set a record in 2015. The city
experienced the most homicides per capita since
its founding and the murder rate nearly doubled from 2014. FBI Director
James Comey said the skyrocketing homicide rates reflect the reluctance by
law-enforcement officers to use aggressive policing tactics following the
controversial death of Freddie Gray. Comey says the officers fear they’ll be
castigated and branded racist and that more civil unrest may result.
President
Obama, naturally, disagreed, and told a group of police Chiefs: “What we can’t
do is cherry-pick data or use anecdotal evidence to drive policy or to feed
political agendas.”
Funny,
that is exactly what his administration
has done with global warming.
