City in Crisis

In case you haven't heard, the City is in crisis. Not only has there been an uptick in violent crime (including apparent revenge killing), but now the brilliant minds at City Hall have the temporary solution. Since City Council wants more information on the deficit before they will approve a round of borrowing, they'll lay off police and fire fighters. I call that fearmongering.

But I bet City Council will buckle right under. After all, I'm sure they read about the elected school board members who were removed from office and ordered to pay legal fees for challenging Reed's Board of Control when it came to refinancing the school district's debt.
