The scrip indeed has been flipped Hisorically i was helocal law enorcemen officials who would embed ino he eds o

provide assisance a he local level Now i has reversed

This is exacly he way he ederal governmen wans i

My aher explained his in his Augus Trumpet aricle ldquoPolice

Under Atackrdquo ldquoAmericarsquos law enorcemen is under atack On

one side people in communiies are developing a misrusul

hosile anagonisic atiude yelling a police assauling and

even killing officers in some cases Police are pulling back rom

doing heir jobs or ear o atack or losing heir jobs or going

o prison or doing anyhing ha could be perceived as racis

On he oher he ederal governmen is undermining local law

enorcemen and sripping i o power in an effor o centralize

policing power on the federal levelrdquoHe hen wen on o exhor readers o recognize jus how dan-

gerous hese rends really are

The homicide clearance rae or Balimorersquos police depar-

men is 36 percen Tharsquos why Commissioner Davis said ldquohe

agens will use ederal resources o help homicide deecives

solve killingsrdquo as he Baltimore Sun repored

ldquoA oal o 191 people have been killed in Balimore in 2015 For-

y-five people were killed in July alone maching he all-ime

monhly high rom 1972 when he ciy had 275000 more resi-

dens Fory-wo people were killed in May he monh afer he

deah o Freddie Gray in police cusody sparked rios

ldquoThe violence his year is in some ways unprecedened No pre

vious year has had wo monhs wih more han 40 killings and

he 116 killed rom May o July is a hree-monh high in daa kep

since 1970rdquo

This is wha happens when he police eel handcuffed One

Balimore police officer who spoke o 983139983150983150 said one reason or he

spike in violence is ha he police orce is no longer proacive bu

reaciveIn his July Trumpet aricle ldquoYour Ciies Are Burned Wih Fire

my aher warned ha ldquo[]he effec o responding o lawlessness

by handcuffing law enorcemen is very dangerous I is cerain o

add uel o he fire ha is burning ciies like Balimorerdquo

Now Balimore is so bad ha local law enorcemen is beg

ging he ederal governmen o come in and solve he problemmdasha

problem he ederal governmen is parly o blame or causing

A spokesman or Balimore Mayor Sephanie Rawlings-Blake

commened on he move o bring in ederal agens saying ha irsquos

ldquoexacly he kind o all-hands-on-deck approach ha he mayor

has been calling orrdquo

You may recall ha his is he same mayor who essenially

handcuffed he police rom he beginning o he Balimore crisisShe called on police o sand down during he rios in April ldquo[W]

hile we ried o make sure ha [police officers] were proeced

rom he cars and he oher hings ha were going on we also

gave hose who wished o desroy space o do hardquo she said

Balimorersquos ciy and law enorcemen officials gave hese crim

inals way oo much space o desroy he ciy Irsquos so bad now ha

hey are calling in he eds Bu his will only make maters worse
