Rochester police department command staff, including the chief of police, is resigning.

Fire all the cops and start over. Like the mayor of Rochester, NY, just did today. - Democratic Underground Forums

Lots of bullshit and an incorrect title by the author. However, looks like top cops in Rochester said up yours. So, my bet is NYSP will be asked to step in and or Monroe County sheriff will be asked to take over.

There's been a huge buildup of NYSP in the last couple days. I posted previously that I passed about 35 cars plus a couple of Bearcats during my 10-minute drive between 46 and 45 yesterday. Both a retired Trooper friend and a retired Deputy friend agree that this is probably why.

This sucks. Singletary is a good man.

A large portion of this country is now certifiably insane.

Anyone got a recommendation for a nice Rottenchester restaurant with sidewalk tables and nice ambience for a leisurely dinner tonight?

I prefer barbecue, by the way .

 

[Blimey]

Warren threw him under the bus.

I am not happy to see him resign because he had NO role in this at all. However, warren has fanned the flames happily and now the angry crowd will continue to demand her resignation.

Would you like that table with or without intruding BLM hecklers who will shout, spit, and steal your drinks?

You may want to wait for winter, though. Evening dining outdoors by the firelight of burning buildings is simply wonderful in upstate New York.

I am happy to see him resign because he deserves better than to work for that POS.

I'm at the point where I genuinely want to see Rochester burn. The voters of Rochester keep electing shitty "leaders" at all levels. Warren. Scott. Barnhart. Evans. They deserve to reap what they sow.

Isn't her position on this inherently flawed? She originally supported his position, then when the heat was turned up, she tried to distance herself from said heat, throwing him under the bus, in essence supporting the opposition, who wants her removed? Logic to her must be a fallacy.
Slimy at the least, confusing to most, illogical to me.

 

[Defilade]

You can put this into the mix also....... Subpoenas issued in investigation into alleged campaign finance violations against Mayor Warren

I've heard she is quite a nasty person in real life.

 

[Toecutter]

Not good . They will put real fascists tyrants in their place. They don't to remove the police they want police they can control.

 

[Jchrisls]

I haven't lived in Rochester long. Has she done anything positive for the city? Would it be a loss if she actually stepped down?

 

[Jchrisls]

I should clarify. I do not support or condone any of the actions taken by these protests. There are ways to make changes, simply at the ballot box, lawfully and peacefully.

Honestly i'm not sure. I've been here for around 15 years and I avoid the city at all costs. I knew it was a crime ridden shithole and the news every night confirms it. The suburbs are awesome.

To me it’s proof that it has nothing to do with race, BLM just wants lawlessness. They already had a black police chief and black mayor running the city and it wasn’t enough.

Agreed. Suburbs here too. Work in the city. In just the few years I've been here I could tell you the city isn't the place to be. Within the few years of moving here, this has happened near my employer, right outside the building;

Had a vendor visit. While smoking outside, shot in the leg with a bb gun. Cops refused to seek the shooter.

One employee accosted with a switch blade, in the shop nonetheless.

1-2 years before I started, quadruple homicide and arson directly across the street .

Vehicles broken into, truck batteries stolen. Hell, they even stole the dam block heater extension cord.

Thought we wised up, parked truck tire on cord. They cut the cord and stole what remained. I mean WTH? Just what use is there for that?

Broke into storage, stole thousands worth of finishing products.

Yeah, the city isn't great.

My rule is I avoid anywhere if at all possible accessible easily by those from the poor parts of the city. If you apply this rule you'll find it highly correlates to where crime occurs. The suburbs are ultra safe and almost nothing ever happens out here.

 

[GOPerfect]

My hat is off to the men and women of the Rochester Police Department for standing up for all that they believe.

This is what we need across all of the fruited plains; any town, city, village or State in which the Elected Elite do not support the awesome job these people do each and everyday, they should all resign or quit. See how long before they are begging for them all to come back.....

One was elected, one was appointed, neither solved the problem. But the problem is people, two sides, what happens if one or two sides doesn't want the problem fixed? There seems to be a social critical mass a brewing of which evil will seek to exploit.

Just speculation in my part.
Willie Lightfoot will be anointed Interim Chief.

It makes sense. Retired RFD. Air force veteran. Church elder. Chairs the Public Safety Committee on the City Council. Business owner within the city.
He has the Rochester roots. He has the reputation within the community and the city leaders. He's worked with RPD leadership for years. And he's a department 'outsider' who wants to effect real change.

So, pretty much everything these "woke" Democrat Mayors DON'T want in a police chief.

None of this Bullshit that we are watching unfold is about race. Never has been. We, Americans, do not have an issue with race. Have not for quite some time.

None of this is about race. This is a cultural issue. It is growing because of the current generation. Older generations are falling for the propaganda. Very few in America really understand the truth, and even less want to know the truth.
