The city of Chicago has a massive crime problem. Everyone knows this and lots of people have ideas for how to deal with it. Brandon Johnson seems to have an idea too, an awful one.
He is talking about reimagning the police. This is the same wording that many people who supported defunding the police used a few years ago.
Any time a far left Democrat starts talking about reimagining something, you should run.
The Washington Examiner reports:
Chicago’s crime problem is about to get worse
Chicago’s crime problem is notoriously bad. And, over the past few years, it has only become more severe. Crime has spiked 88% since 2021 and there are no indications the trend will be reversing any time soon.
Even worse, Chicago’s new mayor, Brandon Johnson, just released a 223-page report titled “A Blueprint for Creating a More Just and Vibrant City for All” that included a truly disastrous “public safety” plan.
The plan, which was inspired by a “struggle rooted in black liberation,” contains no recommendations to increase enforcement of crimes. Instead, it proposes getting rid of a gang database because of “racial disparities,” issuing an acknowledgment of harm toward black and Hispanic residents of the city, “re-envision[ing] the role of a police officer,” and providing mental health services — rather than actual safety — in communities that are “over-policed.”
The people hurt most be their elected officials in those big cities are the ones who keep voting them in. Hard to feel sorry for them when they’ve got other choices.
The ones who vote themin 309pm
are those on governments assistance… you know
EBT CARDS, WELFARE, SECTION 8 HOUSING…
the ones who work for a living pay for all this free chit
How tall are the walls around his house?
Re-Imagine PRISON for Democrats !!!!
Mayor…NY Mayor….take a lesson from the fictional tv series Blue Bloods.
Seems they git the job done with ALL the problems. Yes its fiction, but ask many a new yorker who the PC is and the answer is Frank Reagan.
Boy does your city need a Frank Reagan.
Democrat run cities cannot be fixed. I enjoy their suffering.
The best model for law enforcement was presented many years ago. Sheriff Andy Taylor and his Deputy Barney Fife. Make America Mayberry Again (MAMA)!
C’mon, Man! Chicago went from worse to worser!
