Anyone want to bet against the murder rate actually going up after this bullshit is implemented?
That's $3mil that could've been spent on maintenance in schools that are falling apart. Unbelievable.

"...span the city and bring experts from neighborhoods, local business, philanthropy, and government together." - that's a joke LOL! Here's what I remember from our idiot mayor. Minneapolis was burning 2020. A day or so later Memphis was being attacked by BLM. Hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages were done, in just a few days, to many cities across the United States. The next day, the Nashville mayor decided to let BLM protest in Nashville. There were hundreds of posts on his Facebook page begging him not to allow this to happen. Why? Because most cities that were allowing BLM protests at the time we're basically inviting hundreds of thousands of dollars if not millions of dollars in damages to their city DURING COVID. What did he do? He allowed it to happen. Him and many liberals that Day said "Don't worry, it will be peaceful". What happened? We had hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages to Nashville. He was either the dumbest mayor in the United States, or he was in on it. Can you imagine if a bunch of Republicans got together that day and asked Cooper if they could protest during a pandemic? Please...
Hiring this new guy will make no difference when liberals won't acknowledge the exponentially high violence and crime from black neighborhoods in this city. That will not be allowed. Therefore, violence will not be fixed in Nashville. Because in order to combat it, they would have to look at Mexican gang violence and black gang violence. Black on black crime. And that ain't gonna happen.
