Definitely need a new police chief. No more leaders who pander to woke white liberals who say dumb shit like "defund the police" meanwhile they live in safe neighborhoods LOL. It's funny cause when the protestors came to Englewood shouting that BS, the Englewood residents told them to GTFO. It's like the people residing in these dangerous neighborhoods want proactive policing that keeps crime low

You can only argue the crime was less bad with Rahm and even then the statement you made before this one was still very true with him. The Laquan Mcdonald situation didn't exactly do him any favors.
FTR, I would love a tough on crime mayor, but I can't exactly trust the candidates to provide that nor I am sure if enough voters want it.
