[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Holy crap they are trying to blame the baltimore pd for the Brooklyn mass shooting https://wtop.com/baltimore/2023/08/baltimore-police-showed-indifference-leading-up-to-july-mass-shooting-report-says/[/quote]

So if there’s a huge crowd of disorderly, armed people congregating in your neighborhood and you call the cops a bunch, and then there’s a mass shooting when the cops never show up…you’re fine with that?[/quote]

Not that poster, but people need to recognize that the political climate post-George Floyd has left a huge shortage of police.  Without enough police, officers are only responding to calls for service, and often responding very late. Further, they have no time to actually engage in community policing because true community policing requires having some down time to talk with community members, understand their needs, and then create plans to address them. Staff shortages erode public safety and community trust. This is a no-win situation for BOTH the police and the community.
