No 1 priority should be jail all protesters and fine them. A little hurt in the pocketbook and that will end the foolishness I believe she fined over 600 protesters on the Margaret Hunt Hill bridge then the city manager dropped all the fines.

They need to promote from within and keep the damned city council out of it. There are some very qualified, capable candidates from within who understand the job's challenges much more than some "hero" from another city.

They thought the reason was due to how she handled all the springtime protesting in Dallas. Isn’t that only a $100K/year job.......Phffffft! Can you imagine having to do that job? Median salary for Dallas chief is $108,000. Pretty miserable salary for that kind of responsibility. I think it tops out around 120k. She was paid $225,000 her first year, doubt it went down from there.

Probably has something to do with 7 mil pulled from overtime budget in area that is already understaffed. Defund the police like that and it will keep happening. Add in a worthless DA that is refusing to press charges on a lot of property crimes. Probably has something to do with 7 mil pulled from overtime budget in area that is already understaffed.

He’s the one that let the law breaking protesters go from the bridge

They need to promote from within and keep the damned city council out of it. There are some very qualified, capable candidates from within who understand the job's challenges much more than some "hero" from another city. The core of the problem, as previously mentioned, is the over powered city council and the underpowered mayor and police chief. Dallas is a huge city and is still run like a 30000 population town. When your population numbers and square mileage get large, you need a stronger centralized government. The USA learned this in its first six years of existence with the transition from the original Articles of Confederation (1781) to the Constitution eight years later (1789) Dallas is going on 200 years old and still hasn’t learned this lesson The history of the city council and some of its members is shameful They need stronger oversight and less power or nothing will change.

Being the Police Chief in any major city today is the most thankless job a person can have. “Hollywood” Art Acevedo seems to have done quite well both in austin and then in his higher paying position in Houston. That cat gets his face on tv anytime he wants it there (which is always)
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.
