We have them in Curtis Bay. One I called "Red" has a love of killing my chickens and ducks if they aren't missed at bed check when we put them away at Filbert Street Garden. :) She is a beautiful fox and has been coming and goes for years on our cameras.

As you noted but don't realize you did, term limits for other people are overwhelmingly popular. My representative is doing a great job, the problem is your representative who won't get with the program.

Source: Congress has a 20% approval rating and yet 80% reelection rates.

I’m up in Mt. Washington and I’ve seen a couple of full grown foxes and a couple of youngsters in my yard the last few months. One brave one walked right up to my porch windows to stare in.

There’s a lot of foxes and other wildlife in the corridor from west hampden through woodberry and up to mt Washington. Foxes, deer, possums, squirrels, groundhogs, and maybe some other critters.

Question K isn't a referendum on the government, it's deciding whether or not to let voters keep a representative as long as they choose. It will lead to near 100% turnover in city government 8 years from now, which will be a disaster, and we'll indiscriminately force out good people along with bad.

If you think a politician needs to go, vote them out. Not that many people in this city vote, so yours is worth a lot.

> I’ve never seen such opposition to term limits as I have in this Baltimore sub.

I also find it baffling. It's treated like we're voting for Monty Burns to make a suit from puppies. It's just term limits and it's a 100% valid political option supported by many democrats and/or liberals.
