A call for more resignations
It is almost ironic to hear the chorus of the Baltimore City Council members calling for Mayor Pugh to resign.
Up until the “Hollygate” scandal, were not these so-called same leaders in Mayor Pugh’s corner giving their approval to her plans and policies for restoring people’s pride in Baltimore City? Didn’t they go along with her choice of the 4 different Baltimore City Police Commissioners she chose to head the department – none of whom were successful in combating Baltimore’s horrendous crime problem? Are these the same leaders who have continued to support her line of attack for curbing the fire of violence smoldering in Baltimore City?
Are not these the same leaders who have sanctioned Mayor Pugh’s strategy for improving the city’s disastrous public schools but showing no significant results? Aren’t these the same leaders who have refused to take the initiative and encourage the Mayor to ask the Governor to call out the National Guard for a period of 3 to 4 weeks to stop all of the murders and robberies taking place in Baltimore City every day and night?
I am asking the citizens of Baltimore to start another chorale group calling for the members of the Baltimore City Council to join Mayor Pugh in resignation.
