Lieutenant Jessica Taylor, who served in the force for 23 years, addressed a 15-page-exit letter to the police chief in which she blamed 'failed leadership' for turning the city into a 'playground for anarchists and criminals.'

Only thing wrong with that claim is that the leadership actually was very successful. This is what they wanted.

"Mudslide Slim" by James Taylor

https://www.jamestaylor.com/discography/mud-slide-slim-and-the-blue-horizon/

...I’m gonna cash in my hand and
Pick up on a piece of land
And build myself a cabin back in the woods
Lord, it’s there I’m gonna stay
Until there comes a day
When this old world starts to changing for the good...

She claimed propane tanks, chainsaws, five pounds of weed, methamphetamine and a dozen stolen credit cards were recovered.

I feel nothing for any of them.

They got exactly what they voted for so why are they complaining?
