LEAD INDUSTRY SHAMED ; BUT LANDLORDS BLAMED IN BALTIMORE

www.charlesjeromeware.com     "Here to make a Difference."

Recently the Sunday, February 28, 2016, Baltimore Sun newspaper presented an excellent article by reporter Luke Broadwater, titled "SEEKING PAYBACK", which outlines efforts by Maryland lawyers, legislators and community advocates to push --- once again --- to hold the lead and lead paint industries responsible for generations of human damages caused by lead poisoning in the city.

These efforts are, I believe, well-grounded and important for everyone who lives in the Baltimore
metropolitan area, including many landlords for pre-1978 built apartments and houses --- who have  carried the brunt, thus far, of lead paint and lead poisoning claims and lawsuits. Not every Baltimore area residential rental landlord is a slumlord. The lead and paint industries, however, are more to blame since they knew for many years the dangers of lead to humans who ingest or inhale the metal --- but continued to wreak havoc on communities with the marketing and sale of lead paint, etc., to consumers. 

Sounds familiar?  Think "Tobacco Industry".
