Daley: National Guard only a 'Band-Aid' solution to crime :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: City Hall


Oh great, Captain Cut-Resources, gives his 2 cents. Hey Mayor, you sold a bridge, and parking meters, but can't find any money for fully staffing the police departments.

You just let the "Arbitrator" rule in your favor, and you still can't fully staff the police departments. You have gutted personnel in various departments, yet continue paying your head-honchos overblown salaries. Where's the money going? You blew millions of tax-payer dollars on a non-refundable Olympics. Why?

Sure the military has it's own rules. It's called "The Uniform Code of Military Justice". And yes, by them being under "Federal Jurisdiction" it will "Trump" the State. The bottom line here, is that these bozo's are out of control. You need tougher sentencing guidelines. You need the States Attorney, and District Attorney's coming together, and for once, finally cooperate on a database for tracking gun ownership. Lastly, pass legislation using background checks at these "Gun Shows".

If you don't get serious, these criminals will continue exploiting our current laws. But mostly, and importantly, stop gutting, and cutting law enforcement. Since you can find money to spend, and give-away, for things we don't need, you better get serious and find the money to staff police at 100%.
