The Joys of Living Under Democrat Chicago Mayor Lightfoot

[Weatherman2020]

No, the problem here is that a lot of cops miss the good old days when they can behave badly. If it were up to me, we'd rebuild the CPD from the ground up.



Except the police weren't defunded in Chicago.



And then jack it right back up in 22. ALL DEPARTMENTS had to take a cut in 2021, because of the revenue losses due to TRUMP PLAGUE.

Link to the APPROVED rise in the police budget and how it compares to the last 5 years…..

Chicago ‘problems’ you whine about - last Republican mayor of Chicago- 1931

Not really any point to talking to a partisan robot. The reason why our last Republican Mayor was in 1931 was that he was Big Bill Thompson, who was completely in the pocket of Al Capone....

Hilarious! No corruption in Chicago for the past 90 years! No siree!

Totally relevant that you sit there bitching about the government generated problems of Chicago which just happens to have been controlled by Democrats for the past 9 decades.

Except Lightfoot has increased funding to the CPD.

No one wants to join the CPD because it has an awful reputation in law enforcement.

Typical progressive mindset, throw money at the problem and don't care about actual results metrics.

And has the funding increase matched inflation, or is it just the typical bloat increase you see in government budgets?

Nice dodge, dickless.

The peon paying Illinois states taxes in any form sending it to Cook County and Chicago today are in the pockets of the modern mobsters known as the Progressive Socialist Party. The Chicago Bears are leaving Chicago because it is become third world in pure violence. All pro sports teams know this in older or more corrupted blue cities. It is the smart bet.

Mixed bag. She increased the number of officers that were allocated to the PD. True, they are having a hard time finding takers... As a result, there's a lot of money being spent on overtime, which is ALSO not good. (Tired cops are MORE likely to make bad decisions).

Nice dodge, dickless.

Not a dodge at all... you guys claim that the police were "defunded" when nothing like that ever happened.

The other side claimed that's what they wanted to do, and in several places did.

How are Democrats in charge of running a hotdog stand in America at this point? They make nazis look like a choir

Slight budget cuts in a time of falling revenues is not "defunding".

joe all you are doing is defending your party....many places made it sound very much like they were "defunding" the police in their cities....

Made it sound?

How many actually DISBANDED their police forces?

The reality is the economic fallout from TRUMP PLAGUE and TRUMP RECESSION meant that cities had to cut back on a lot of services, except for the police.

Dem shithole.

no one said they disbanded them....many cities cut the police budget enough that it made a difference in the crime rate....

Good thing too. Democrats have brought crime under almost complete control except for some isolated cases like Jussie getting attacked by those white bigoted Trump supports.

These US cities defunded police: 'We're transferring money to the community'

More than 20 major cities have reduced police budgets in some form, and activists are fighting to ensure that is only the start

Lol, Trump handed you loons a recovering economy, secure border, low inflation, and low energy prices and you screwed it all up.
