Somehow I get the impression that Mayor Ali was expected to stop a a baby from injesting those pills,
or expected to know about the El Vista domestic situation and should have stopped that homicide and shooting of the neighbor?
Sad way to start 2024

She still hasn't done anything to stop the gang and youth crime. She doesn't care. She just wants the Amtrak route. She wants that to be her legacy.

It’s the culture that needs changing, but Mayor Ali doesn’t want to address that.
Would you leave fentanyl-laced drugs in your grandchild’s crib? Of course not! But, apparently some people need to be told not to do that.
How do we reverse this complete lack of respect for the lives of others?
Gotta change the culture. You can’t respect others if you don’t respect yourself. Glorification of criminal activity and prison sentences, objectification of women, no parental responsibility, all these things and more need to change before it will improve.
I will never vote for Kamunism
