[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw this on X from Council member, Zachary Parker https://x.com/cmzparker5/status/1716590861788606853?s=46&t=-HHcWoCHm3QxeWBQNfyl4w [/quote] that's old news, that's where he says Russell is a known to the community, having a mental health crisis and that he will make sure Russell gets the support services he needs. [/quote] I can’t possibly explain how angry his response made me. There are children invilved![/quote] His follow up, just posted about 20 min ago, is a little better. A little. [twitter]https://twitter.com/CMZParker5/status/1716907854740046294?s=20[/twitter][/quote] Anytime a public servant has to make a day-after statement, it's a clear sign that their initial statement was a stupid one. Parker clearly learned that expressing more sympathy for perpetrators of violence than for their victims is no longer going to cut it. I hope other CMs -- particularly Charles Allen, who has no problem throwing around the "experiencing a crisis" line to explain away crime -- are paying attention.[/quote]
