Disaster San Francisco mayor torched for seeking federal assistance to curb crime crisis: 'You need us to deal with it' - I'M BREEEEEEEEEEEDING

San Francisco Mayor London Breed is taking drastic measures to battle the city's spiraling crime crisis, seeking federal assistance as it continues to endure streets ridden with drugs, violence, and homelessness.

The mayor has ironically been known by her critics as a ‘defund the police’ advocate, but as her police department faces steep staffing hurdles amid the surmounting drug epidemic, she sought federal assistance to relieve the city of its years-long challenges.

"The scale of the problem is beyond our local capacity," she wrote in a partnership plea to U.S. Attorney Ismail Ramsey in a March letter, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

As a result, she has garnered fierce scrutiny from her pro-police critics who have called her out for her pivoting on the issue.

San Francisco Police Officers Association's Lt. Tracy McCray is one of those critics, who called out the San Francisco mayor for "hating" law enforcement while noting that officers are a critical key in curbing the city's issues.

"If you want… to have a police department, you want morale to be good. You want people here to do this job, and unfortunately, yes, you need us to do this job," McCray said during "America's Newsroom" Monday. "Stop hating what you need. Obviously, no one else is going to go and deal with this problem but the police."

"You throw everything on us. So you know what? Stop criticizing us. Stop trying to break us down because… you need us to deal with it," she continued.

Breed's letter placed great emphasis on curbing San Francisco's "open-air drug market" as fentanyl-related overdoses continue to soar.

"We need additional and ongoing support from the Department of Justice to arrest and prosecute drug dealers so residents, families, and workers feel safe in their neighborhoods," she wrote.

"Hopefully it's not too little too late," McCray said in response. "You recognize that you have a problem. You need to move forward. We want to move forward. Obviously, everyone knows about our staffing crisis, so this is no secret."

"And believe me, you want to call the DOJ to help you with this problem before you have to call in the National Guard because you don't have a police force," she continued.

According to city data, the San Francisco Police Department is understaffed by a whopping 541 officers.


An audit of state records even revealed the San Francisco Police Department hired dozens of either unqualified or undocumented officers to tackle the surmounting shortage, according to a report published back in March.

Within the last seven years, there were 45 officers in the Bay Area who were missing critical information in their hiring records like fingerprints, proof of citizenship, graduation records, and incomplete psychological exams and background checks.

But McCray warned the police department cannot be the "cheaper alternative" to productive city policy, urging leaders to take action and invest in "other alternatives."

"Pull yourself up by the bootstraps," McCray said. "I get people need a helping hand, but damn, how much? Do we just give them everything? You got to earn some of these things in life, so either get with it or you know what? Step aside and I guess we'll just come in and keep trying to fix the problem."

Breed pledged to bolster public safety and enhance policing during her state of the city address this year, while also vowing to curb the city's drug epidemic.

Between January and February of this year alone, there were 131 accidental drug overdose deaths, according to the San Francisco office of the chief medical examiner.

"San Francisco's a beautiful city. I want you to come here. I want everyone to come here and visit, but you can't do that, if you got to keep stepping over people shooting drugs in their neck, toes, God knows where else in their body, no one wants to see that," McCray said.
 
See the problem with defund the police is that you defund them....and then you replace them with nothing, since you defunded them. You know, you could have juggled money around and maybe paid for social workers and case workers on crazy calls and on the drug addicts.

But then you'd have to FUND the police, which looks bad. So you defund them instead, which leads to low morale, which leads to low faith, which leads to low pay, which leads to officers fleeing, which perpetuates a failure cascade.

My friend, your city has the only human fecal map in the first world. Your city is a failed state, since indoor plumbing is basic civilization and sanitation.

oh no, they squirreled away those budget cuts towards every two-bit, completely ineffectual social program you could imagine. They just called it "alternative policing" even though the cops weren't even a little involved. You think a progressive city would ever shrink it's overall budget?

I actually think Seattle wound up spending more money between diverting tons of police budget into something that made their laptop caste buddies happy, and then on the sudden huge signing bonuses they had to eventually issue to attract, or even retain, any cops from leaving the department for a precinct not run by incompetent baboons.
 
The only good thing about this is that you get to larp as an cop for an few months.

I mean, with standards like these, surely there's an demand for someone who wants to brag that they were an cop in San Francisco
 
I hope this mayor and the west coast bughives get torched by a 5 megaton nuclear warhead.

If Xi or Putin were to turn California into a nuclear wasteland I would give 0 fucks, infact I would recommend giving them a Nobel Peace Prize for their efforts on making this world a better place.
 
They hired illegal immigrants as cops :story:

Easy solution: More free needles, safe injection sites and state-sponsored drugs! They're responsible drug users of sound mind who just want to relax after work. The reason why they're dying is because of dirty needles and racism. We need taxpayer funded programs where addicts-I mean- recreational drug users, have access to safe, racism-free drugs.

Eat shit, San Fran. There'a plenty of it out on the street.
 
They've literally given all of us in california their: water, taxes (don't pull up the 19080137490437902 gorillion budget surplus again, after demanding federal aid, Cali is literally a welfare state at this point stfu fag), tourism, supply lines, jobs, and they even took most of our scared retards.








And you dare to demand more?
Fuck off, fix the shit you made or I will forcefeed it to you at an arby's.
