My greater source of personal concern, outrage and sympathy beyond this
particular case is focused neither upon one night?s property damage nor
upon the acts, but is focused rather upon the past four-decade period
during which an American political elite have shipped middle class and
working class jobs away from Baltimore and cities and towns around the
U.S. to third-world dictatorships like China and others, plunged tens of
millions of good, hard-working Americans into economic devastation, and
then followed that action around the nation by diminishing every
American?s civil rights protections in order to control an unfairly
impoverished population living under an ever-declining standard of
living and suffering at the butt end of an ever-more militarized and
aggressive surveillance state.

The innocent working families of all backgrounds whose lives and dreams
have been cut short by excessive violence, surveillance, and other
abuses of the Bill of Rights by government pay the true price, and
ultimate price, and one that far exceeds the importances of any kids?
game played tonight, or ever, at Camden Yards. We need to keep in mind
people are suffering and dying around the U.S., and while we are
thankful no one was injured at Camden Yards, there is a far bigger
picture for poor Americans in Baltimore and everywhere who don?t have
jobs and are losing economic civil and legal rights, and this makes
inconvenience at a ballgame irrelevant in light of the needless
suffering government is inflicting upon ordinary Americans.

Baltimore.

This may be going to what the rabid right call "revolution." Or maybe
the widespread protests will fizzle out. We'll see.
The "income disparity" issue is getting a thorough airing.
The only answer to that is "income redistribution."

There's another answer. Jobs.
