Governor (just call me Paul Bunyan) Lamont: Bridgeport is sick of your bullshit, hypocrisy, and lies. We’re disgusted by your Blumenthal-like photo ops (looking to swipe his job from him?!) taking advantage of Bridgeport tragedy that you have no intention of addressing in any real way…
Please read and respond to the following: So, Chief; I don’t have to tell you that Bridgeport has a drug-gang problem. Our crime problem is describable as a decades-long, continuing turf war between one set of evolving drug gangs operating in the most lucrative “illegal drug store” in the Northeast… “National Geographic” said it best during G1, in 1995, when they called Bridgeport “…the drug supermarket off of I-95…”
There are no training/job opportunities in Bridgeport that are capable of competing with the financial opportunities and adrenaline rush of being a well-paid operative in a lucrative, Bridgeport drug-gang operation…
Chief; if you want to make Bridgeport’s streets safe, you need to move beyond “YES! — Mr. Mayor!” propaganda bs — such as in this press release — to “When the POTUS and Governor Lamont get serious about addressing the socioeconomic collapse of Bridgeport — with massive urban-renewal/jobs-creation $$$$ — the BPD will be able to very effectively address a “normal” level of non-urban-warfare public-safety needs that a municipal police force is meant/designed to address…”
This weekend “flare-up” wasn’t a “flare-up” — it was a normal Bridgeport-street-crime weekend, with the normal amount of gang violence/gun play. Nothing more. Nothing less.
Being police chief of a failed city run by politicians devoted to roles as underlings serving a politically-corrupt state government isn’t easy. I feel for you Chief; you’re a good, smart/competent, honest cop that wants to help his city — but the people that should be enabling you are enabling the “other side” in order to keep the socioeconomic status-quo, quo, in regard to Bridgeport’s place in the municipal pecking-order of Connecticut… I wouldn’t blame you if you bailed and took a job as Chief of Oshkosh — or some other sane, reasonably wholesome place…
Good luck, Chief. Video-camera/Internet accessible-equipped drones and stationary Internet video cameras on Bridgeport streets are an essential part of modern, urban policing, but massive employment of Bridgeport working-age people at local jobs making those high-tech gadgets would go light-years farther than the use of such by the BPD in furthering Bridgeport public safety…

The Post Office is moving out of Black Rock on Fairfield Ave, what a great place to put a Precinct.
