The plan will first focus on neighborhoods that “have suffered from decades of indifference or disinvestment,” Mayor Brandon Johnson said. It focuses on addressing root causes of violence through long-term investments in education, economic opportunity, community investment, violence intervention and prevention, housing and policing.
These “at risk” areas and their residents received hundreds of millions of government dollars in the last 50 years, and nothing has changed. That money was the product of hard working Americans, and it was all vaporized. There’s no tangible evidence of that money being spent in those neighborhoods, and in 100 years those neighborhoods will all look the same as they do now, no matter how much the Democrats spend.

after some googling around, apparently ‘The People’s Plan for Community Safety’ is just a press release and rough outline with a bunch of platitudes, what a joke as usual.
