Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake on Wednesday defended the city's decision to call in heavily-armored police officers from surrounding counties in anticipation of a verdict in the Officer William Porter trial.Rawlings-Blake chastised members of the media, who she said had "sensationalized" the city's actions. She said Baltimore is "prepared," not "on edge.""We all remember what April and May were like with National Guard troops throughout our city," the mayor said. "The way to make sure we don't get back there is to make sure we have assets in place to respond. ... It's not to create fear. It would be irresponsible of me as the chief executive of the city not to prepare for whatever comes up."Baltimore officials say they are seeking to avoid a repeat of the riot that erupted in April while preserving the community's right to protest over concerns about police brutality.
