Skin color is very important to people who have nothing else to offer.

She is feeding negative stereotypes of tokens when she admits she took the 3rd string for the high level positions.

Usually this happens in businesses without shareholders (municipalities, non-profits, etc.); very stupid to admit that she’s shortchanging investors with social engineering.

Her jacket may have been tailored to fit a man.

Somebody going into a $215K job can afford to get a tailor to get her jacket to fit before her publicity photo.

Either she has a small head on a normal body, or a normal head on a land-whale body. The latter seems more likely.

“Portland mayor selects first Black woman…
So how old do they estimate she is?”

What’s her wife’s name?

“But given that it’s Portland....well, we all know what to expect, don’t we.”
But of course.....a social justice Chief of Police....sure as night follows day”

Wonder how the rank and file police morale is?

This seems to be the latest rage. Black female Chiefs of Police.

Another is LGBTQwerty Mayors.

A faze that will hopefully die.

What strikes me is the glasses. Folks with visual impairments can serve in LE?

I’m sorry Chief but extra large body armor is all that’s left.

Someone on FR has to know someone, thru however many degrees of separation, that is/was on the Oakland PD. If you want answers, you have to ask those people. Far too many “admin” types are getting these leadership positions, because they got their Master’s and got a chance to go to the FBI National Academy, while not knowing their a$$ from a hole in the wall. And then, when something goes sideways, they prove to be the most inept person in the place. The examples are many.

Agree. In the past few decades, government has developed the uncanny ability of hiring all the wrong people. Then to compound that, they hire 10x too many of them.

Why would Chief Outlaw put on body armor for a photo shoot?

Do you think law enforcement administrators and the brass wear body armor?

“Portland mayor selects first African American woman to be next chief of police...”

“...hurts his hand patting self on back.”
