Police Retire in Record Numbers in Crime-Ridden Chicago
My Daily Freedom ^ | 7-17-2021 | Frank Bojazi

FOX 32 reports discusses the staggering amount of police officers retiring in Chicago thanks to the crime, failed Democrat leadership, and even the calls to defund the police. The crime is reportedly “out of control” and further reported is the possibility that “gang members now outnumber the city’s police officers by 10 to 1.”

Gang members in Chicago outnumber law enforcement officers about 9 to 1 — as officers are on track to retire in record numbers this year, police said Wednesday.

Police Superintendent David Brown estimated last year that there are about 117,000 gang associates, who are part of the city’s 55 known gangs.

The number greatly exceeds the city’s police force, which employs around 13,000 officers.

The disparity may be even worse due to the droves of cops retiring this year, the Chicago Sun-Times reported.

The problem will be worse than the numbers indicate. I suspect most of those retiring are older, more experienced police personell.

“gang associates”


I wonder: do they get profit sharing, health care and a pension?

Not to worry. They can drop all the [racist] standards, including the background check. Just hire the “gang associates” on to the Force. That should work out great.

This is exactly what the Deep State wants.

They want to federalize all local police. They want to federalize, everything!

Defunding police departments, along with the ensuing police retirements, are all part of the plan by the democrats.

Democrats are about controlling everything, nationally and locally.

So, getting rid of the local and state law enforcement agencies, would allow the federal government to take control of law enforcement, thereby helping to bring to fruition their dreams to take control of everything.

BTW, nationalized voting is also part of the overall dream. They’ve taken over education systems, and most of the media, and have managed to keep Obamacare in place. With control of the major social media sites, and the demonization of anything the republicans do, democrats are well on the way to turning this country into a socialist/communist hell.

There are some stunning numbers here.

117,000 gang members in Chicago? Compared to a total black and hispanic population of about 1.5 million? So close to ten percent of the minority population is in a gang?

Yes I will make the obligatory statement that white boys can be in gangs too, even as we all know the vast majority of street gangs in Chicago are members of these minority groups. So any liberals lurking here, please know I am not being racist in condemning criminal street gangs.

How about this crap, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez endorses this psychopath for the city council who call the NYPD a “white supremacist institution” even though whites are now a minority in the NYPD and she wants to defund them down to ZERO meaning NO police.

So during a massive crime wave in NYC like Chicago, this is who they are going to elect. Hard to feel sympathy

... the city [Chicago]has not funded $33 billion in pension and $2 billion in retiree health care benefits of the $45 billion retirement benefits it has promised. Chicago will need to lay off all city workers, police officers, and firefighters for nearly eight years in order to catch up on pension payments alone.

It's one town that won't let you down...except...

All whites are racist. Didn’t you get the memo?
Apologizing does nothing. And if you aren’t white you are an oreo or a Tio Taco.
