Last I heard it was on fire and there was rampant looting.
I'm sure this is the way many Democrat cities are run. Here in Cleveland, the Mayor had the council pass a 1.5 million dollar dirt bike park. Why a dirt bike park? Because the Mayor's grandson got busted riding his dirt bike in the street a few times.
The city can't afford to replace their retiring police officers, and some of their police cars have over 100,000 miles. That might not be impressive, but considering they almost never leave the city lines, it's a lot of miles.
This very same grandson got busted last year for illegally carrying a concealed gun, pot and a scale. He was very worried because it might have interfered with that gravy job his grandfather got him at the Water Department. Not to fear though, his grandson got a slap on the hand and time served (I think one night) for his crimes.
The Mayor's family troubles didn't stop there though. His great grandson also got busted for carrying an illegal firearm. That's not so bad until you consider his grandson was only 14 years old. The Mayor was quoted saying his family is like any other in Cleveland; they need to protect themselves too! Well......maybe if you didn't spend that money on a dirt bike park and instead, put it to more law enforcement, your grandson would be protected without his gun!
Mind you, this was all just before his reelection which he won. But the Democrats tell us they are the most intelligent among us.
Holy corruption batman.
Trust me, that's only half of what goes on here:
Mayor hires former councilwoman convicted for accepting bribes
More proof government has become a corrupt racket to get rich on the taxpayers dime. Patronage and corruption is thriving.
I wouldn't say all government, but without a doubt, the Democrat party is ripe with corrupt people.
Speaking of corrupt Dem's...in NY a leading Dem got his brother a cushy political appointee patronage job in state government. This avoids the civil service salary cap. His brother had an office provided to him in the state capital building in Albany. But his brother didn't want to drive 30 miles to this office, so they leased him an office closer to home for $50,000 a year on the taxpayers dime. This office was owned by the leading Dem's next door neighbor.
