In Appalling Statement, Chicago Mayor Blames City's Soaring Murder Toll on Police Not Being Aggressive Enough
“We have allowed our police department to get fetal and it is having a direct consequence,” Emanuel told U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch. “They have pulled back from the ability to interdict . . . they don’t want to be a news story themselves, they don’t want their career ended early, and it’s having an impact.” ![]() ![]()

5. This is happening all over the country
Violent crime rates soared after Baltimore and Ferguson. From what I gather on Twitter, they aren't willing to take the risk. Easier to just pretend to investigate, arrest nobody and shove it into the unsolved case files.
There really isn't any way to prove how diligently each individual officer is policing crime, so there is no easy solution. Body cameras are a good start though. |

7. Of course they're gonna say that to him
That is their right. On the other hand, it is not his job to simply be a stenographer for them and echo every bitch they raise. He doesn't work for the police department, he works for the citizens.

15. Now THAT is a damn good question.
Oh, that's right . . . Al From, the DLC and the CLINTONS sold the party to them piecemeal so as to feather their own nests and ride that corporate gravy train of $$$$$. How could I have forgotten?
