A Republican member of the Maryland General Assembly may have a possible solution to stop rioting in Baltimore and quell what he deemed "Thug Nation": take away food stamps.
Maryland state Del. Pat McDonough appeared on a conservative radio program and agreed with a caller who suggested that the way to end rioting in Baltimore was to punish the parents of those who participated by cutting their food stamps, according to The Intercept. "I think that you could make the case that if there is a failure to do proper parenting and allowing this stuff to happen, is there an opportunity for a month to take away your food stamps?" McDonough said Wednesday during the radio broadcast.
"It would never get past the legislature because it seems a little bit harsh, but I think the principle is there has got to be some way to connect to the lack of parenting," McDonough continued.
On Monday, 25-year-old Freddie Gray, who died while in police custody, was buried, and shortly after the funeral, protesters took to the streets, with some looting and destroying property.
At one point, during a discussion about the possibility of a "scientific study" on "police relationships with the black community," McDonough noted that while the project is necessary, it will require, "brilliant, honest, objective people" on "this community, this culture, this thug nation."
“These young people, they’re violent, they’re brutal, their mindset is dysfunctional to a point of being dangerous,” he said, adding that he doesn't want to "put them in a test tube or cage."
"We have got to study, investigate and really look at what this is all about," he said, according to The Intercept.
He added that "thug" isn't a loaded term citing President Barack Obama's use of the word to describe some of the protesters who looted and burned property.

It's several people locked up now that didn't leave their home that morning thinking they would take a life. And by that same token it's several people that left their home and didn't think they wouldn't pass away at the hands of someone else either.
You know what's crazy is how the US [business wise] has said that Unions "were" good for companies but it became clear that they also protect the bad and undeserving and can do harm to a company's growth. Now look at these Police Unions. They will protect bad, lazy and undeserving cops to the death knowing they are wrong...all because they pay some damn Union dues. So if the country views unions as unneeded now...then it's time for the Police Union to get disbanded.
As a country we got it backwards on unions. Most view the ones in the auto industry as horrible, but feel police unions can do no wrong. You will still have many who take their word as truth no matter the circumstances.

So he can sit on the scales and corrupt the legal system? He's done precisely what he should be doing.

COld blooded they cared nothing about his health of life and he didn't even commit a crime.
Its disgusting. She was more worried about protecting them and I am sure they are going to throw her under the bus because she was in charge. Good.
