Candidates voice interest in Louisville police chief job

Lake Forest is gated?

Is the mayor going to have a community forum where the majority of tax payers live? Or is he just playing to the liberal base by making them think they are included. For "F"udge sake, stop treating the minority communities like children. One preacher, one activist, or one group does not speak for the entire community.

What do WE want?

1. A Chief who let's his officers police in a manner that is good for the community, not driven by stats.

2. A Chief who promotes people capable of doing their job.

3. A Chief who hires people who want to serve and not those who serve a politically correct ideal.

4. A Chief who is engaged with his department, so that he may truly learn who works and those who work at trying to get into his inner circle.

5. A Chief who tells the truth! We have gangs. This Comstat stuff is a scam so lets drop back on punt for a better solution.

6. A Chief who doesn't let the CJ run his department. Who takes a stand to say yes we have problems with our court appearance system and it will be fixed by this date. Not open a costly, burdensome, useless investigation that in the end proved nothing that we didn't already know.

7. A Chief who realizes that first and formost he is expected to be a POLICE OFFICER. He was hired to lead the men and women of this department. To make it a better and stronger organization that serves the common good.

8. A Chief who is a member of THIS community and who has a vested interest in the well being of Louisville. When we search for a Mayor we don't elect someone from outside the community but we accept when a politician tells us that the best and brightest are found outside of Louisville.

"Let's Roll!"

I am going to write the metro council and the SPI; yes, I will do it anonymously as I have 8 more years in the circus (unless it changes), but more importantly, I will voice valid points of moral and leadership failures that can be turned into questions and inquiries for the incoming mayor.
