Notes from the Resistance
However, this week saw a particularly confusing moment when, after calling the anti-crime program ShotSpotter “racist,” Johnson asked the company to extend its contract beyond the upcoming Democratic National Convention. [More]
But he seemed so adamant…
I wonder what “per$uaded” a change of heart to break a campaign pledge and extend racism… ?
Forget it, Jale. It’s Chi-Town.

Mayor Brandon Johnson announced Tuesday that he won’t renew the city’s controversial contract with ShotSpotter, making good on a key campaign promise to do away with the gunshot detection system that has come under heavy fire for allegedly being overly costly and ineffective. [More]
Kinda like what David Chipman would have brought to ATF…
Man, when even Chi-Town Democrats get it…

Cities with the Biggest Homicide Rate Problems [More]

The FOX 8 I-Team has found a high-tech system aimed at getting guns off the streets almost never leads to an arrest. We investigated since Cleveland City Hall spent millions of dollars to alert police to gunfire more quickly. [More]
They needed a whole “team” to figure that out…?
Good rule of thumb: When David Chipman pushes sh!+, it’s probably bull sh!+.
Even with “rebranding.”
Cleveland: At least we’re not Detroit.

What they call it won’t mask the fact that it’s an expensive boondoggle for Democrat cities that want to look like they’re “doing something.”
Maybe along with the “rebranding” they need a new spokesman:

Chipman’s buddies now have $800K more from the public trough.
And just look at those talking heads regurgitate whatever those they’re supposed to be watchdogging tell them, all with practiced looks of sincerity and concern. I’m wondering if there is anything more useless than “real reporters.”
