(WEAA)— Tuesday night’s Baltimore City Council meeting regarding a proposed revival of the Dollar House program turned into a shouting match between a proponent of the bill and a council member when concerns over the legislation were expressed.
During this $ Home hearing the key witness (President of NACA) personally insulted our Mayor and Councilmember Ramos. He also made a veiled threat about a riot breaking out with 700 people that are supposedly at city hall. I counted about 150.

I won’t stand for that nonsense.
“What really shocked me though Gabe, was to compare this incident to January 6’s insurrection in the op-ed by six of these council members, [that] blew my mind. To me that was the most outrageous of all things…” -Hassan Giordano

Continuing to reflect on last night, a white man from out of state rallied Black people from outside of the city in our City Hall, then indicated that they may be rioters, and that the safest way to avoid them rioting was to let him be heard as their voice. pic.twitter.com/mMvr8XLuJo
