    This article is nuts. Should be national news. A dozen employees at a Florida Panhandle prison say inmates are being beaten/ starved by guards. And they say the guards use racist intimidation, like dangling toilet paper nooses, to keep black staff quiet.

    Late last year @amajlaton, his girlfriend, and I were robbed at gunpoint in Baltimore (intersection of S Hanover St and W Lombard St, ~10 pm on a Sunday night) by a man and a woman. The woman was arrested within a week or two and charged with armed robbery (she held the gun).

    Illegal ATV & dirt bike riders showed up at Moechella (Save Chocolate City Protest at 14 & U St.) Some residents who live nearby in expensive condos told me they want to make arrests. Cops tell me they aren’t allowed to chase: “There’s nothing we can do.”
