Baltimore

Baltimore real estate, specifically.

Excerpts from Fundamental Concepts -- Dear Black Baltimore Rioter, Weirddave

Dave, who is a bit weird but I haven't noticed, wrote a powerful essay a few days into the Baltimore rioting, a monologue in colloquial form from a white guy to an imagined rioting black guy one-to-one who would be unlikely willing to listen. Dave who is weird mentions a few specific Baltimore locations in buttressing his insider take but if you are not a resident then you will not know what these specific locations in Baltimore look like. Dave includes a few photos of rioters, "this is you," and he describes and infers without showing the places. And I'm curious about that. Because this is right there along Washington/NY commuting corridor so close to Washington. And now with the commuting train incident in that area I'm thinking it would take a mighty force indeed to depress all that real estate. Here is what Weirddave said back then that I found interesting enough to open Google Earth with the hope it could help show what Weirddave is talking about. It does! Even parsed so poorly without addresses.
