The Mayor and Chief are both to blame! (none / 0) (#3)

First the mayor spends more money every year in the beer improvement district so people can drink than he does in the poor (read) black communities of Albany.  Check his political donations and find out how many bar owners donate to him.  See a conflict?

The near million dollars a year he spends at the golf course.  Wonder who benefits from that?  You got it, his contributors.

The Chief ended community policing in favor of an occupational force called the SDU which by the way is at the center of all the recent police abuse cases.

The people in the poor communities fought to have the beat officers stay but Tuffey took them away.  Now they don't know the officers, don't trust them and some are in fear of them.
