Cruisers

Milwaukee has long had a history of problems with the teenage cruising around the city. Blocking roadways, driving through yards, shooting guns, drinking and drugs. The Police have done very little to stop the problem. Chief Haggerty has pretty much been the invisible police chief. She hasn't accomplished much in her time as the Chief. Michael McGee would have everyone believe that if you put police in the area you are just targeting the black community.

I think that it is time that we do whatever it takes to get the streets back in lawful hands. Quit handling all these problems with kid gloves. Drop the hammer on these people. Not just the cruisers, but the whole damn city. This city has gone into the crapper and no one is willing to step up and do the job. The Mayor, Chief of Police, City Government, County Government, all just sit back and tell you what is wrong, but not a one of them will get off their lazy butts and roll up their sleeves and dive in and turn this thing around.
