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.

Once the crime hits unbearable and Chicago has minimal cops left, the Feds will step in and provide a federal police force.
