The local media also seems to not like him very much, so i expect every move he makes to be well documented and critiqued. We shall see.
He's not getting a honeymoon period from me AT ALL!

Why the hell should you lie? You did the right thing.

He's already a disaster. Didn't he axe a lead ada for one of those murder trials?

Poor Lynn Abraham is right.
I've always been a registered Dem. However I voted for Sam Katz when he ran for mayor for instance. He would have been a good mayor, imo.

Shhh....

But, seriously, the fact that NYC had less homicides than us last year is horrifying and embarrassing especially when a couple of years ago the number of murders was the lowest in 50 years.

I believe NYC and LA both have among the lowest homicide rates in the nation. I think Philadelphia would benefit the most with widespread and strict police presence. There should be at least 1000 more officers employed with the PPD.

You're right in theory. However, I don't want to bankroll more lazy bums dressed in police clothing standing around checking their phones. It would be better if Ross could transform his current force into something respectable before we go piling more lazy into this boat.

Your guy Krasner( you voted for him, correct?)would likely object to that kind of increase in cops.
