I doubt it would be as profitable as you think. The amount of extra traffic court cases would increase drastically. Extra staff to maintain and calibrate would cost tons, incorrect tickets that would need to be checked and removed, thousands of people extra in court fighting tickets, additional staff to process literal millions of tickets not to mention the widespread hatred of city government spreading for insane government overreach. Let's also not forget how much it would decrease what little tourism money we get too as the entire country will know baltimore as a city of murders and insane traffic cameras.

A better solution would be to properly time lights and increase bike and mass transit infrastructure.

Wow! Very good analogy of the pearl. I will definitely be using this for sure. The media truly sucks for manipulating people the way they do but honestly It's helping to keep the prices down here quite a bit.

I also remember DC when it was still the Murder Capital and a lot different than it is now

My opinion is NEVER do it on the internet. Go to a local bar and strike up conversations. Be respectful and do your best to LISTEN to what the other person is saying. I’ve gained an incredible amount of knowledge of how people live and some of the struggles that they come across in their lives that I would have never even thought of. On the flip side, once you show that respect and prove that you are truly trying to learn, you can share your opinion without being immediately labeled as a racist which will 100% happen with an online discussion.

I don’t live there, but I drive through Bolton hill to get to work every day. It seems like a very charming space… parents walking their kids to school or pulling them in little plastic wagons. MICA students walking alone.

If you’d followed from the beginning you’d know I asked for recommendations. Im not walking into any random place in any neighborhood with nothing but hope and my dick in my hand. I maintain a list of yet to be visited places.

Recommend some specific places.

Edit: battered chicken is disqualified.

Best post ever. You have saved me much time. Originally from Buffalo and always trying to find the perfect wing. Suffered thru many much touted wing recommendations.

It’s on the list, but question for you: is it more of a take away spot? Part of this game is that we have to be able to eat in (and have beers). Also are the wings battered like their sandwich? Because that’s excluded as well.
