I’ve said it over and over again, they’re not defunding the police, they’re defunding your police protection.
They will always have walls of men with guns protecting them. When you call the police though, you’ll be told, “Sorry, we have no men available, have you considered checking your privilege.”
Look at Chicago where Mayor Brandon Johnson, the anti-police radical, has plenty of police protection. Ordinary Chicagoans however, not so much.
How many officers should be on patrol in a Chicago police district overnight? Let’s say it’s the Central (1st) District, which generally covers the area between the river, the lake, and 31st Street. Neighborhoods like the Loop and South Loop, the lakefront and parks, parts of Bronzeville, and the West Loop.
60? 50? 30? How about nine? If you said nine, then you might be the person who crafted the Central District’s schedule for last Thursday night into Friday morning. Because that’s how many were on patrol.
A source provided the staffing information, and it’s pretty bleak: One sergeant was on duty for the entire district. Four patrol cars, with two cops each, were on the streets. The district assigned a fifth car, a solo unit, to sit at the “migrant landing zone” all night, but that officer could not answer any calls.
More open borders at work. Meanwhile…
Also new is the Detached Services Uniformed Support Unit, whose 93 officers support the long-running Detached Services Unit’s 61 officers. Their job? Protecting the mayor, mostly.
That’s right. There’s a very good chance that on Thursday night, there were more cops assigned to protect the mayor than the entire Central District.
A more recent example shows that “the 16th district, which covers the far NW side, has 228 officers assigned to it for over 200,000 citizens.”
They’re not defunding their police protection, just yours.

Incisive Point!

The story (and the accompanying photograph) demonstrate, in a nutshell, what the once beautiful big cities of our nation have descended into. I don’t mean to be too gloomy on a brisk Thursday morning, but there is no coming back from this. And with the democrat-promoted illegal alien invasion, matters will only get worse — quickly.
Leave the cities. Find some temporary refuge in a small city or town in the South.

Is this practice morphing into a modern-day Praetorian Guard, or SS? Kinda sounds like it.

Good point, thanks!

Chicago the Windy City of Democrat Airheads the whole name Chicago comes from the India word for Skunk/Bad Smell and sticks up to really well

Is it just me or do all the sign language interpreters look like weirdos? They all seem to be ugly broads, no guys. Where the heck do they come from?
They annoy me.

My thoughts exactly. I saw one once who was apparently just waving their arms around and not translating the words lol.
I suspect it’s all women because they are more likely to want to care for the deaf people who wouldn’t be in the crowd anyway and if they were they could lip read and if they’re on tv they would read the subtitles.
They have to spend your tax dollars somewhere.
Jeff Bargholz says
Yes, the subtitle part bugs me. All those press conferences are televised so a sign language weirdo isn’t necessary and like you wrote, how many deaf people who can’t read lips are going to be there anyway?
And I think I saw the same video of the fake sign language skank just waving her arms around. Maybe a lot of them are that way?

The sign language lady’s expression looks like an apt reaction to Mayor Johnson.
