A thread of bad tweets from the Louisville Metro Council, who spinelessly refuse to hold the violent monsters at LMPD accountable:
LMPD's budget is about 250 million a year. For that kind of money, you could build a house for every one of Louisville's 7000 homeless in just 2 or 3 years. After that? Just pour the money into social services and unemployment, bada bing https://twitter.com/bloosemore/status/1273266270415224832
LMPD's 1531 staff murder an average of 8 people a year in Louisville. 0.0052 murders / staff.

In 2019, the other 706,000 residents of Jefferson county murdered 91 people. 0.00013 murders / resident.

So, it seems like the police incite 40x more violence. https://twitter.com/bloosemore/status/1273266271442911232
Protest movements when they don't make clear demands: "Y'all need to focus on something! We can't fix everything at once!"

Oh my god you ignorant turnip. 1/4 of your district isn't even served by LMPD. And of course your district doesn't give a shit about preventative programs, they're all rich, white, and racist. These people don't get policed ANYWAY. https://twitter.com/bloosemore/status/1273266275129667591
Lots of bad opinions all around. Keep making noise until these people get it through their thick skulls.
