I guess staying in school, getting an education and a legitimate job is out of the question with these “squeegee workers”? No one should have to fear dealing with these extortionists.
In the State of Maryland you have to be 14 years old (with a parent willing to sign it) to get a work permit, so yes, getting a legitimate job is out of the question for most of these kids. And as it is July, I don't expect them to be in school. Cleaning car windows has been a "job" for kids in Baltimore at least since the '60s (my mother used to talk about it), much like carrying groceries, filling gas tanks, shoveling snow, washing cars, etc. These are some of the things I did as a kid and I have always respected the kids outside doing these things in the summer and after school because they're trying to earn an honest buck when they could be out running for the local dope boys, robbing people or stealing cars... you know, actual criminal stuff. While we are in agreement that no one should fear an interaction with any other person and this was a terrible situation that should have never happened, let's not pretend that this man did not cause his own death. As frustrating as it may have been (& I really don't understand why, it's just water on your car) he could've simply said no and drove off. He didn't have to have an argument with them, get out of his car or swing a baseball bat. At that point he invited whatever happened next. It is terrible, but kids carry guns in America and Baltimore is not immune to that. I wish that weren't the case but it is. I wish there weren't so many of them on the streets, but I don't question why they are there. My frustration lies with the adults. Where are the after school programs and summer camps for kids? What happened to the BNBL? Rec centers, skate parks, arcades... where are the things that keep kids off the streets? And why isn't city leadership attempting to remedy the issue (that many tax payers have complained about) by providing any of these things? I'm really not trying to defend this young man, he shot somebody over an argument. That was as uncalled for as swinging a bat on someone over unwanted water on your windshield. I would like to add some perspective that may cause you to have a little empathy, though. He had a gun on him that he could've been using for any number of criminal activities, but he was outside washing car windows for change. I don't think he was the worst person in the world, just a thought.

The point is to humiliate the public and make them feel powerless. They want to force normal people to use their twisted language, it breaks their will and makes them easier to control.
BOGDAN SERBAN Are you slow? Like for real? Is the only thing you can think of to say "okay Karen"? Put your picture in your profile and then we can swap jabs.
If they would ask people to do it and move on from the people who say no, it wouldn't be a problem. I get it, they come from poor families who can't afford the multiple kids they have. Do what you have to do to makes ends meet. But the second they start damaging people's cars and threatening them. Now they're a nuisance and possible danger to everyone else. They're not harmless kids anymore, they're showing there only future is prison or getting killed. It's pathetic how they cause there own problems then want to blame everyone else
Bullshit he didn't even get a chance to swing his bat, he got out and saw there were alot of them so he turned around and they surrounded him and one of them shot and killed him!!!! My Parents knew the guy and he was a good guy just trying to take care of his family and his life was taken!!! So Sad why u need a gun to wash windows
Those are third world Haitians. They are not Americans. That's how they do things over there. They have came over here giving black folks a bad name. I can't stand them .
Was the squeegie boy old enough to be carrying a handgun according to Maryland law? Does he have a concealed carry license because he's a "business owner"? I'd like to see his application to the Maryland State Police! How convenient that the guy can't be found! And so, the extortion racket continues!
Oh come on now ... don't you know he just a sweet traumatized youth who is truant from school to feed his family and wielding an illegal handgun to protect himself from all those law abiding working class taxpayers because it's our fault his Parents lack the ability to raise and support the children they bring into the world because there is no more money for all the sports and after school programs that the rest of us ... often work 2 jobs to provide for our children .... gosh you are such a bad person for not feeling sorry for them jeez louise
So you can have all these cops after the crime, but not for the visitors or people who live in there! What's wrong with this picture, cities get your shit together if you want people to visit or spend money in your cities.

Baltimore is a highly segregated city with city resources focused on white neighborhoods. Squueege boys are mainly black and are targeting and extorting Caucasians and that's why majority of black people have no problem with squeege Boyz. Same thing that's happening in South Africa.
Bro they offer the service to everyone they don't care about your skin complexion. I bet you never was extorted at a red light so why lie? Your super sensitive. Just politely say no and don't cry about having to do so.
These guys are NOT boys they are lazy men…People are tired of being harassed.. the more you leave them alone the more aggressive & emboldened they get…they need to get real jobs, where there’s expectations, this is not a real job, trade or skill…this is pitiful and disgusting…
These young men aren't being lazy as you put it. They're hustling to make money under the table, sure...but they're providing a service just the same. You might not like it but they're not panhandling or asking for a handout. They're actually washing the windshields. They're being entrepreneurs 'n even some day own their own businesses. They're doin' what many young white men did back in the day when goin' door-to-door asking to cut ppl's lawns or shovel their sidewalks/steps. You're complaining without offering any solutions. This young men *COULD easily be out there in those streets selling drugs but they're not. What kind of job would you have them do realistically speaking. I betcha most haven't finished school yet as many still 'round 16 or 17; some may even have arrest records that might pop-up during background checks. What type of jobs would these young men qualify for in your opinion? At least if they're making money during daytime hours 'n are reinvesting their monies back in their 'windshield washing business,' why make a stink over it? Now if your gripe is how aggressive these guys are, maybe it's 'cos of their desperation. Out of how many thousands of cars they attempt to wash per week, I'm sure they only get paid for a small friction of them. I can see how it would be discouraging...especially when some drivers blow them off with condescending attitudes. That said, perhaps the Mayor should assign police on those intersections to protect everybody involved. The squeegee young men can approach without being aggressive 'n drivers can declined without the fear of having themselves 'n cars battered.

our mayor or anyone praising these kids that squeegee are trash that man's life is on that mayor's hands . There's a few respectful kids out there squeegeeing but a larger #there just strong arming people . if someone says don't touch my car don't touch it. it's disgusting of the guy in the car also had a firearm and shot the squeegee dude they would make it a national holiday innocent black man slayed trying to feed his family by washing windows . everyone knows what took place driver says no im good and dude continued to spary his concoction of soap on his window with his stolen gasstation squeegee ,ignoring simple demands and now the kids sucking his teeth with his hands up . they should be banned PERIOD.
I agree that some of these guys are aggressive 'n something needs to be done with the way they approach drivers. That said, you're making assumptions (these guys stealing the squeegees from gas stations) for example. Squeegees are cheap when purchased at Walmart or Family Dollar or Dollar General. Stop making criminals out of a group of kids hustling a service. They *COULD BE out there in those streets selling drugs! At least they're willing to provide a service with WORK. You speak as though they're coming up to drivers' windows with guns/knives in hand demanding money for nothing...c'mon now!
As a “former” frequent visitor to Baltimore - this is scary - I am not allowed to protect myself - the gun laws of Maryland only apply to visitors to the state - you can’t get a permit as a out-of-stater- great law only applies to outsiders - sqeegie boys with guns - that’s attractive tourism - “safe” in a car at a traffic light only to be confronted by possibly armed squeegee boys - it’s not worth the risk to spend my money and risk my life - I’d rather drive through the Ukraine - at least I could be armed - the Baltimore “leaders” need to fix this by banning the squeegie boys - I thank God I left Bmore years ago - still miss it and the fine attractions especially Os and Ravens - will see them in Cincinati or Pittsburgh where I will be much more safer and allowed to be armed with my resident state permit -
U can carry…u need to be told to or something…u gave up ur rights long time ago…yea Baltimore is for strong men…u don’t need to come here…might not leave with britches u came with
Are you positive about not being able to get a CCW if you aren't a resident? I know Virginia and I think Pennsylvania you just have to apply and you get a license even if you aren't a resident!
Based on what I read this guy wasn't defending himself. He parked his car and came at them with a baseball bat swinging. While he may have gotten messed with his life wasn't in danger. What do you think the odds are that you could be shot if you attack a crowd of strangers with a bat? Pretty good I think. There are lots of guns in Baltimore. You put your life in danger by attacking a bunch of strangers with a bat or any potentially deadly weapon. It was bad judgment and he paid the ultimate price for being a hot head.
What is a "kid" doing with a gun? Why does a squeegee "worker" need a gun? "Kids" are not legally allowed to possess guns. Unless I fail to understand the nature of squeegee work, only a spray bottle and a rag of some kind are required for the job. Or if you are a professional, a squeegee instead of a rag. A gun is not required. Or necessary . . .
The problem is you got people that don't understand poverty and they would rather ignore the problem because they only care about their selfish lives than to help someone who lacks opportunities put those together and what you expect? You can't be a criminal but it's OK for you to starve and be treated badly and be discriminated against? Yall don't see the system as a problem?
Did you all catch the fact that the man with the baseball bat was shot repeatedly? The squeegee boy is going to have a tough claim on self defense. Even if the driver was the initial aggressor, the young man could have easily walked/jogged away. And to shoot him several times............self defense?? And the City of Baltimore allows the squeegee boys to perform these daily shakedowns...............for what reason(s)??
Currently, there is no Stand Your Ground law in Maryland to protect crime victims. Maryland's Duty to Retreat law requires people who are not in their homes to retreat or avoid danger before using deadly force to defend themselves. So even deranged bat wavers have the right not to be shot, unless it is impossible to escape from a lunatic attempting to use deadly force. Last time I checked, Baltimore was a pretty big place. I'm sure the "kids" could have found some place in the City to run away from the man with the bat.
While I think all squeegee thugs should be locked up, this sounds like self-defense to me, sorta like Rittenhouse shooting the guy who tried to bash his head in with a skateboard.
Squeegee workers shouldn't be out there. The police should enforce getting them off the streets. That driver shouldn't have gotten out the car he parked and attempt to harm them with a bat. Sorry that he lost his life for making a stupid mistake, he was already out numbered. Condolences to his family. Sorry but that young man is going to have to suffer the consequences of his actions. That man came after them with a weapon first he could of kept going . Remember they didn't go after him. Baltimore has been dangerous for many years. Them frustrated people need to keep their a$$ in the car. Protecting yourself is one thing, attacking someone is another. He was just as bad as those children, he should've called the police. People use common sense.
Put Them into paid Programs funded by the City to get Certifications to have a Career & if They won't go through with getting Their life straight then They don't want shit. Those that want will have & those that want not aren't meant to be Saved.
For those that may be unaware of what I am indicating I'm speaking of people panhandling squeegee boys and people posting signs up distracting on going traffic which is a unsafe situation. I also feel that we need new leadership in Baltimore and abroad if they want to see changes laws have to be changed and enforced.
So pathetic that the squeegee thugs haven't been caught yet. I'm sure they've been working the street for a while, been video taped, recognized by police/drivers before.
The police probably know that if caught, the squeegee "workers" would squeal on some scam the police or city council are running. But that's just a conspiracy theory.
If your a wannabe tool gangster then what the f are you and homies doing that kind of phony work when the money from it is just gonna be used for drugs or more guns. It need to stop now.
25 years ago the Inner Harbor especially Fells Point were dangerous. I was car jacked and held at gunpoint a block from the tourists hotels and famous clam restaurant
WTH are squeegee workers even doing on main streets.. go to gas stations offer your assistance at a proper place not in the middle of a street. I would be pissed if someone out of the blue starts wiping my windshield without permission
Sweet innocent children. Imagine, an adult coming at them with a ball bat, for no apparent reason. It's a good thing one of those children brought his gun to work , he may have saved the lives of his co-workers. I would imagine that they can probably deduct the gun and ammo on their 2022 taxes.
The "squeegee boys" need to be banned as well as anyone loitering on the main roads in Baltimore.

Don't give them credibility by calling them squeegee workerst, they are Shakedown artist and it should be outlawed.
We're living in a third world twilight zone!
A "squeegee worker" ....they need to lock everyone of them up for impeding traffic .
"I tell em all to keep Killin til there ain't nobody left"
Sounds like a program that needs to go away.
Outlaw this shit it’s annoying and tiresome and dangerous stop waiting till something happens to make a change plus when you say no some idiot then punks get mad when you say no and act up, reason even more to keep something on you just in case you gotta deal with these fools take em out
a guy comes at the cops with a bat he gets shot, so this was a legal righteous good shooting, squeegee guy should get desk duty and full pay during the investigation
@@georgegoble6054 idgf about that time talking about timee they are aggressive and hoping or slamming other people cars when they are told no just like the time a woman few years ago said no and attacked and surrounded her car this shit ain’t no real job at them find one that’s off the street and not be on people when they say no one it’s been to many incidents with them I mean if your okay with them damaging you’re car or car or whatnot be my guess this wasn’t a cop these people are known for being aggressive and acting out and getting mad at drivers for getting a no not everyone wants their car touched. This wasn’t a cop this was civilians a cop ain’t gonna be on the street fcking with you’re car getting aggressive because you tell him no for not wanting you’re car touched or doing something when you tell them no and they do it anyway and ask to get money out this squeegee shit ain’t no profession if you want a professional job get one not something you didn’t even apply for. Nigga do live in the city ? Or just some white boy from another state. That nigga shouldn’t had a bat and that nigga shouldn’t have had a gun a ghost gun at that that’s like saying you cool with these guys carrying guns and when they get pissed off can shoot someone for defending themselves from them being aggressive when they got no business bothering anyone who don’t want that shit done to their property
Squeegee worker's? Why in the hell are they allowed to stand around in the street begging for money?
It's an insult to every citizen harassed by these squeegee thugs daily to refer to them as "squeegee workers"🤬
The point is to humiliate the public and make them feel powerless. They want to force normal people to use their twisted language, it breaks their will and makes them easier to control.
@HawkGTboy You're exactly right. I will continue refusing to conform to their insanity.
BOGDAN SERBAN Learn how to spell and then you can attempt to insult me.
BOGDAN SERBAN It's super cool that you keep calling me "Karen". Lol. 2020 called and wants its insult back🤣
BOGDAN SERBAN Are you slow? Like for real? Is the only thing you can think of to say "okay Karen"? Put your picture in your profile and then we can swap jabs.
If they would ask people to do it and move on from the people who say no, it wouldn't be a problem. I get it, they come from poor families who can't afford the multiple kids they have. Do what you have to do to makes ends meet. But the second they start damaging people's cars and threatening them. Now they're a nuisance and possible danger to everyone else. They're not harmless kids anymore, they're showing there only future is prison or getting killed. It's pathetic how they cause there own problems then want to blame everyone else
I wonder where the squeegee workers are they must be at the union office
Bullshit he didn't even get a chance to swing his bat, he got out and saw there were alot of them so he turned around and they surrounded him and one of them shot and killed him!!!! My Parents knew the guy and he was a good guy just trying to take care of his family and his life was taken!!! So Sad why u need a gun to wash windows
Those are third world Haitians. They are not Americans. That's how they do things over there. They have came over here giving black folks a bad name. I can't stand them .
Squeegee worker?
What company do they work for?
Was the squeegie boy old enough to be carrying a handgun according to Maryland law? Does he have a concealed carry license because he's a "business owner"? I'd like to see his application to the Maryland State Police! How convenient that the guy can't be found! And so, the extortion racket continues!
Oh come on now ... don't you know he just a sweet traumatized youth who is truant from school to feed his family and wielding an illegal handgun to protect himself from all those law abiding working class taxpayers because it's our fault his Parents lack the ability to raise and support the children they bring into the world because there is no more money for all the sports and after school programs that the rest of us ... often work 2 jobs to provide for our children .... gosh you are such a bad person for not feeling sorry for them jeez louise
I won't even drive by Baltimore let alone driving thru it.
Inner Harbor used to be a fun place..............
Disgraceful
This squeegee crap needs to be OUTLAWED.
Vote democrats in will clean this town
What exactly is a squeegee worker? Oh yeah you mean extortion
Exactly right. " that's a nice windshield you got there. It would be a shame if anything happened to it".
So you can have all these cops after the crime, but not for the visitors or people who live in there! What's wrong with this picture, cities get your shit together if you want people to visit or spend money in your cities.
"Squeegee worker." And you why Baltimore is messed up.
Stop letting people panhandle. It's disgusting everywhere nowadays
I thinks it’s safe to say I will NEVER visit Baltimore lmaoo
That's what happens when u bring a bat to a gun fight
The other day I was in the light and one of them was very agressive ..because I don't want him to clean my windshield he hit very hard my car my windshield and he spray my face with the water...I call the cops and they only tell me they are minors We can do anything...they need to take them out of the streets
Punk..u don’t have the balls to stop it…so just don’t come to Baltimore…I don’t have these problems
Yup I got sprayed in face before too it’s a huge issue city allows to continue for decades
@@injun6896
Don't cry when we start running them over.
Well how were they able to spray your face? Did ya put your window down to verbally tell them no. In the future, just nod your head no 'n don't make eye contact. They'll get the jest 'n leave you alone. No need to verbally say anything to them.
@@bethelight6836 I'm goin' to ask ya the same question that I'd just asked Luly: how were they able to spray your face? Did ya put your window down to verbally tell them no. In the future, just nod your head no 'n don't make eye contact. They'll get the jest 'n leave you alone. No need to verbally say anything to them.
Baltimore is a highly segregated city with city resources focused on white neighborhoods. Squueege boys are mainly black and are targeting and extorting Caucasians and that's why majority of black people have no problem with squeege Boyz. Same thing that's happening in South Africa.
Yeah. Black leadership failures
@@madelinemardigan3386 Agreed
Bono should write a song about that!
So HTF do ya go from B-More to S. Africa tho 😂
Bro they offer the service to everyone they don't care about your skin complexion. I bet you never was extorted at a red light so why lie? Your super sensitive. Just politely say no and don't cry about having to do so.
Do the Squeegee people have a Permit to clean windshields, did the shooter have a gun permit ?
Bro of course he didn’t have a gun permit it Baltimore two u can’t legal carry in Baltimore
He didn't need a permit to defend himself, that's all that matters.
@@yourmomsspermdoner It's not self defense when he's the aggressor.

@@Motown-1966 Some of us don't respond well to extortion.
Historically low unemployment and WBFF calls these extortionists "workers"
The man shouldn't have gotten out! However, why is one carrying a gun? If you're innocent, why scatter?
These guys are NOT boys they are lazy men…People are tired of being harassed.. the more you leave them alone the more aggressive & emboldened they get…they need to get real jobs, where there’s expectations, this is not a real job, trade or skill…this is pitiful and disgusting…
These young men aren't being lazy as you put it. They're hustling to make money under the table, sure...but they're providing a service just the same. You might not like it but they're not panhandling or asking for a handout. They're actually washing the windshields. They're being entrepreneurs 'n even some day own their own businesses. They're doin' what many young white men did back in the day when goin' door-to-door asking to cut ppl's lawns or shovel their sidewalks/steps.
You're complaining without offering any solutions. This young men *COULD easily be out there in those streets selling drugs but they're not. What kind of job would you have them do realistically speaking. I betcha most haven't finished school yet as many still 'round 16 or 17; some may even have arrest records that might pop-up during background checks. What type of jobs would these young men qualify for in your opinion? At least if they're making money during daytime hours 'n are reinvesting their monies back in their 'windshield washing business,' why make a stink over it?
Now if your gripe is how aggressive these guys are, maybe it's 'cos of their desperation. Out of how many thousands of cars they attempt to wash per week, I'm sure they only get paid for a small friction of them. I can see how it would be discouraging...especially when some drivers blow them off with condescending attitudes. That said, perhaps the Mayor should assign police on those intersections to protect everybody involved. The squeegee young men can approach without being aggressive 'n drivers can declined without the fear of having themselves 'n cars battered.
@@Motown-1966 these are not jobs, where’s the benefits, retirement, where’s the promotions/ advancement, where’s the bonus & incentives, what do you put on your resume, where’s their 1099s, where’s their tax returns, how can the ever buy a house or be productive hustling, hustles like this are not jobs it is panhandling& nobody should be glad for them to harass people VS selling drugs… they need real jobs with real accountability learning real skills something where a family can be proud of them… explain why do they need help? Nobody owes them anything…There’s hundred of thousands of job openings- they just don’t want to have to be somewhere on time, dressed appropriately getting paid an amount that’s commiserate with their limited education & experience. That’s their problem it’s either I’m going to destroy the community or let me do what I want when I want and be happy about it or there will be consequences… people are fed up… my solution is fill out an application, go on an interview & get a real job .. it’s 15 year old kids with jobs this is pathetic & ridiculous…

The squeegee gang. Why is this allowed?
I like that...squeegee gang. Reminds me of The Little Rascals or the Our Gang kids who always had some sort of hustle or another.
Can you tell me what company the squeegee workers work for?
Rediculous
The driver is at fault for his own death..he should've never decided to get out swinging with a weapon..actions have reactions!
our mayor or anyone praising these kids that squeegee are trash that man's life is on that mayor's hands . There's a few respectful kids out there squeegeeing but a larger #there just strong arming people . if someone says don't touch my car don't touch it. it's disgusting of the guy in the car also had a firearm and shot the squeegee dude they would make it a national holiday innocent black man slayed trying to feed his family by washing windows . everyone knows what took place driver says no im good and dude continued to spary his concoction of soap on his window with his stolen gasstation squeegee ,ignoring simple demands and now the kids sucking his teeth with his hands up .
they should be banned PERIOD.
I agree that some of these guys are aggressive 'n something needs to be done with the way they approach drivers. That said, you're making assumptions (these guys stealing the squeegees from gas stations) for example. Squeegees are cheap when purchased at Walmart or Family Dollar or Dollar General. Stop making criminals out of a group of kids hustling a service. They *COULD BE out there in those streets selling drugs! At least they're willing to provide a service with WORK. You speak as though they're coming up to drivers' windows with guns/knives in hand demanding money for nothing...c'mon now!
Can’t find the squeegee worker ? , just call the company they were working for and see where they were dispatched to that day. Oh never mind
Dude shouldn't never jumped out of his car...
It's not that serious...
Brought to you by Democrat control
Imagine making enough $$ to buy a gun squgging windows
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Isn't that what you guys say when the races are reversed?
Baltimore you caused this. It's 100% your fault.
As a “former” frequent visitor to Baltimore - this is scary - I am not allowed to protect myself - the gun laws of Maryland only apply to visitors to the state - you can’t get a permit as a out-of-stater- great law only applies to outsiders - sqeegie boys with guns - that’s attractive tourism - “safe” in a car at a traffic light only to be confronted by possibly armed squeegee boys - it’s not worth the risk to spend my money and risk my life - I’d rather drive through the Ukraine - at least I could be armed - the Baltimore “leaders” need to fix this by banning the squeegie boys - I thank God I left Bmore years ago - still miss it and the fine attractions especially Os and Ravens - will see them in Cincinati or Pittsburgh where I will be much more safer and allowed to be armed with my resident state permit -
U can carry…u need to be told to or something…u gave up ur rights long time ago…yea Baltimore is for strong men…u don’t need to come here…might not leave with britches u came with
@@injun6896 thanks for the sage advice
Are you positive about not being able to get a CCW if you aren't a resident? I know Virginia and I think Pennsylvania you just have to apply and you get a license even if you aren't a resident!
@@injun6896 Another tough guy on the internet lmao
Based on what I read this guy wasn't defending himself. He parked his car and came at them with a baseball bat swinging. While he may have gotten messed with his life wasn't in danger. What do you think the odds are that you could be shot if you attack a crowd of strangers with a bat? Pretty good I think. There are lots of guns in Baltimore. You put your life in danger by attacking a bunch of strangers with a bat or any potentially deadly weapon. It was bad judgment and he paid the ultimate price for being a hot head.
Where did he get the gun? Legally? Did he have a legal carry permit? Did he buy it legally?
What is a "kid" doing with a gun? Why does a squeegee "worker" need a gun? "Kids" are not legally allowed to possess guns. Unless I fail to understand the nature of squeegee work, only a spray bottle and a rag of some kind are required for the job. Or if you are a professional, a squeegee instead of a rag. A gun is not required. Or necessary . . .
@@1dominickjohn A gun is needed for the extortion, the squeegee is just a fig leaf.
@@1dominickjohn why do white people who work office jobs need to carry guns? If your response is to protect themselves ima tell you to sit down.
This seems like something you’d experience in Liberia.
The problem is you got people that don't understand poverty and they would rather ignore the problem because they only care about their selfish lives than to help someone who lacks opportunities put those together and what you expect? You can't be a criminal but it's OK for you to starve and be treated badly and be discriminated against? Yall don't see the system as a problem?
It’s considered racism to point out the obvious💩🤷♂️
Remove young adults of corners not kids and homeless people as well
Driver is wrong, to park and get out of your vehicle is to instigate confrontation,
I didn't know squeegee workers was an occupation.. 😂😂😆😂😆😂
Did you all catch the fact that the man with the baseball bat was shot repeatedly? The squeegee boy is going to have a tough claim on self defense. Even if the driver was the initial aggressor, the young man could have easily walked/jogged away. And to shoot him several times............self defense??
And the City of Baltimore allows the squeegee boys to perform these daily shakedowns...............for what reason(s)??
Currently, there is no Stand Your Ground law in Maryland to protect crime victims. Maryland's Duty to Retreat law requires people who are not in their homes to retreat or avoid danger before using deadly force to defend themselves. So even deranged bat wavers have the right not to be shot, unless it is impossible to escape from a lunatic attempting to use deadly force. Last time I checked, Baltimore was a pretty big place. I'm sure the "kids" could have found some place in the City to run away from the man with the bat.
Oh how the rules are flipped when it's not a cop "fearing for their lives" from a man with no bat "charging towards them"
The driver had the chance to leave he chose to react violently to the situation when he could have driven off
@@beamer104 That is true. No question he is the aggressor. But two wrongs don't make it right.
Jus like the police who shot that dude 60 times?
While I think all squeegee thugs should be locked up, this sounds like self-defense to me, sorta like Rittenhouse shooting the guy who tried to bash his head in with a skateboard.
You don't know that do you? Maybe the squeegee punk sprayed liquid in his face or punched him.
@@wanaraz ITS STILL SELF-DEFENSE BECAUSE HE DROVE OFF PARKED HIS CAR AND CAME BACK WITH THE BAT
@@chrisd.3982 maybe maybe not.
Squeegee workers shouldn't be out there. The police should enforce getting them off the streets. That driver shouldn't have gotten out the car he parked and attempt to harm them with a bat. Sorry that he lost his life for making a stupid mistake, he was already out numbered. Condolences to his family. Sorry but that young man is going to have to suffer the consequences of his actions. That man came after them with a weapon first he could of kept going . Remember they didn't go after him. Baltimore has been dangerous for many years. Them frustrated people need to keep their a$$ in the car. Protecting yourself is one thing, attacking someone is another. He was just as bad as those children, he should've called the police. People use common sense.
Squeege "Worker"? You people have no shame.
Will it be self-defense? Depends what color the squeegee worker is.
@The Guy Bro when are you cleaning? hahahahaha
@@waynetywater7267 You got that right!

Give these kids an option. Job, Job Corps, or Jail.
These guys are dangerous.
Make a law that nobody can post in the intersection of any street or corner in the united States & maybe we will see a change.
For those that may be unaware of what I am indicating I'm speaking of people panhandling squeegee boys and people posting signs up distracting on going traffic which is a unsafe situation. I also feel that we need new leadership in Baltimore and abroad if they want to see changes laws have to be changed and enforced.
squeegee work should be illegal, and the man who shot the bat wielding maniac shot in self defense...
So pathetic that the squeegee thugs haven't been caught yet. I'm sure they've been working the street for a while, been video taped, recognized by police/drivers before.
The police probably know that if caught, the squeegee "workers" would squeal on some scam the police or city council are running. But that's just a conspiracy theory.
If your a wannabe tool gangster then what the f are you and homies doing that kind of phony work when the money from it is just gonna be used for drugs or more guns. It need to stop now.
Squeegee workers have rights.
25 years ago the Inner Harbor especially Fells Point were dangerous. I was car jacked and held at gunpoint a block from the tourists hotels and famous clam restaurant
You don't need to cary around a bat, Hogan just made it easier to get a conceal carry permit in MD
Sounds like self defense!
Registered firearm?u think?
WTH are squeegee workers even doing on main streets.. go to gas stations offer your assistance at a proper place not in the middle of a street. I would be pissed if someone out of the blue starts wiping my windshield without permission
Sweet innocent children. Imagine, an adult coming at them with a ball bat, for no apparent reason. It's a good thing one of those children brought his gun to work , he may have saved the lives of his co-workers. I would imagine that they can probably deduct the gun and ammo on their 2022 taxes.
