The Sun Falls For The Oldest Race Trick In The Book- Linden Liquors

2 comments

September 23, 9:13 PM

by Adam Meister, Baltimore Politics Examiner

The Sun disgracefully published a story about a protest outside of city hall by Korean-Americans who are angry that the plague known as Linden Liquors has been padlocked. The Sun actually published a story where it is implied that the owners are being picked on because they are Korean. Total BS! I can not believe the Sun fell for this one.

Since Linden Liquors has been shut down the 900 block of North Avenue has been clean and quiet. It is clear that the owners of the establishment refused to take measures to control who hung out inside and outside of their store. They totally underestimated the resolve of the community to shut them down also. The owners (and any person with a pair of eyes passing by) saw drug deals going down constantly. Drug dealing is illegal. If I let drug dealers in to and around my house to sell drugs and hang out then I am at fault and I should be punished. If I said I was being picked on because I was Jewish, people would laugh just like how I am laughing at today's protest. I wish I would have known about this protest in advance. I would have definitely gone down there to counter protest this sorry excuse for a cause. Shame on the people who support businesses that allow drug activity.
