Murders, Robberies, Crime Alerts, and the City Council and Mayor are mute on crime

Where is the “elected” outrage and public rally to solve these problems? The “elected” are too busy building gardens on rooftops, laying down train tracks, tearing down 100 year old laws, building stadiums, handing out movies at libraries, building bikes paths, need I go on. What about focusing on the number one task that all elected officials are responsible for…protect the public interests? The number interest of the public is staying safe. Looks like these folks are more interested in building monuments to themselves that performing the duties for which they are elected. The general public is also to blame here for not holding these people accountable. Elected officials do have a lot to do, but there are basic things that they are responsible for at each level of government. If we, the public, continue to harp on them for our own “little pet projects and selfish interests” then they can’t be expected to stay focused on their clear areas of responsibility. Public safety is the number one concern for all city officials and is one of the top livable factors. A city can have all the bells and whistles it wants, but they all go to waste of the city isn’t safe to be in. Murderapolis has returned to the landscape, and if our elected officials don’t get a handle of this now we will be too far gone to solve it later.
