Defunding the police, even partially, is already bringing the chickens home to roost in Ithaca, the City of Evil.

Boxes full of switchblades and machetes scattered around the city might help resolve things quicker...

Up until COVID hit I was playing in a band with a woman who grew up in Ithaca and whose father was a professor at Ithaca college. She was a good singer, but an absolute kook. City of Evil indeed!

I met a guy from Ithica in the Marines.

Wish I hadn't.

Entering Ithaca from the south you pass under our “Bridge to NOWHERE”. There is a banner on it saying that Ithaca Police Department is HIRING.

Funny, since a recent budget proposal was that 8 (ALREADY LEFT VACANT) police officer positions be ELIMINATED!

DEFUND THE POLICE is alive and well in Ithaca.

snip
“74.4 officers
With a permanent population of about 31,000, that means the Ithaca Police Department should have 74.4 officers. Nayor said IPD is currently operating with 61; however, 10 are out on leave and are not active, bringing the functioning total to 51. Additionally, three more officers were injured that week during an arrest.Oct 21, 2020”

https://www.ithaca.com/news/ithaca/police-funding-its-complicated/article_8d38decc-13ed-11eb-9fa4-7bd17b390c46.html#:~:text=With%20a%20permanent%20population%20of,that%20week%20during%20an%20arrest.

So on 10/21/2020 The City of EVIL, I mean Ithaca, Should have 74 officers and they have only 48 on duty.
