That's a reference to Baltimore before O'Malley and while Baltimore's homicide rate has improved, its still way up there.

And all three candidates have expressed support for the so-called Assault Weapons Ban, so this is not a criticism of OMalley per se.

Selective gun bans are a big mistake for Democrats.

Judicious background checks may work.
