I just heard that Baltimore will spend 20 Million to clean up the mess the thugs left behind.  But, here's the kicker;  The mayor, who actually invited some of the destruction, wants me and you, through FEMA, to pay the 20 Million to replenish the money spent.  But, let's not cloud the issue with facts (LOL!): FEMA is for natural disasters -- NOT thuggish disasters!

​The mayor needs to fire the mayor.

As a line officer that hates internal politics in police work, I love this story of the police chief (they call a commissioner) being terminated. He recently called for forcing officers out and he was going to make officers do their jobs. 

Now the only one that is out is the chief.  

I hope for the officer's sake that someone is hired that will back up the officers. I am not talking about turning a blind eye to corrupt officers but not one that goes on record with what is perceived by officers as a blanket criticism of the officers.

​I think it is more than appearance. The police chief dictates the way officers act by his direction in policy, discipline and backing. 

Of course this mayor might want a yes man (or woman) and not a real leader but chiefs go a long way in dictating police response and that includes retaliation against him by officers in their response to crimes. If a person wants to be a successful police chief then making 90% of your officers mad is not a good career enhancer. 

Or as a former coworker said to a deputy chief in my department a few years ago, "I was here when you were hired and I will be here when you leave". 

That turned out to be correct by several years.............

      What news station do you watch?…..never mind.    What age are the children you take care of. Refugees from where? Are they in a hospital? Now children compared to criminals…..geeeez. The mayor of Denver and a few governors, including Newsom, have said they will not turn over incarcerated criminals to ICE. This is a felony. They are harboring criminals and fugitives. Gee, I’m so glad you want criminals protected. Anyone who crossed illegally into our country is a criminal. Happy Holidays to you and yours.

      Are they offering refuge to criminals? Or is it a Trump talking point? Refugees are people who leave their country due to unwarranted prosecution. I actually take care of 2 refugee kids who have complex medical needs   No, refugees are not criminals, and the assumption that they are more likely to be criminals than the general population is incorrect:                                                                                          Research shows immigrants commit crimes at lower rates Immigrants in the United States commit crimes at lower rates than the U.S.-born population, including unauthorized immigrants. This is true across immigrant groups.                  Immigration doesn't raise crime rates Immigrants don't raise crime rates in the communities where they settle. In fact, some studies suggest that immigration can lower crime rates, especially violent crime.                  Anti-immigration politicians have spread a myth Anti-immigration politicians have repeatedly tried to link immigrants to crime, but research shows this is a myth.                  Refugees don't cause crime in Turkey A study found that refugees don't have a causal effect on crime rates in Turkey. In fact, the study found that refugees may have a negative effect on crime rates per capita.

      I think it's actually the first time ever to get past the second round. Some older folks might try to tell you about Scott High but I wasn't here when that school was around 😆
