Well, here's some more trivia: Baltimore had a fire in 1904, that caused approx. $150, 000,000 in destruction in 1904 Dollars. Also, by 1970, the Baltimore population was nearly 46% Black. The last riots of any significance were on April 4, 1968, and were attributed to indignation over the murder of Martin Luther King. So, maybe it would be fair to assume that them folks the other day was jes' carryin' on the proud traditions of their fine city.
