Could it be that some people would like to shift control away from the Mayor who was in drug/alcohol REHAB during the riots and told the police to stand down?
There’s a way to get Joe Hogsett out of control. It’s called “defeat him in the mayor race in 2023”.
It amazes me we don’t have a Marion County GOP that can’t come up with an alternative to what Hogsett is doing.
The police are just as responsible for escalating protests to riots as anyone else. Nobody started rioting until teargas came out. Protests didn’t turn to riots when IMPD grew a pair and embraced the protesters instead of fighting them. And that’s the thing: adding teargas to a protest just causes chaos, which provides cover for bad actors to act badly.
This bill doesn’t have a lot to do with Hogsett. It has a lot to do with nipping in the bud the idea that civilians should have some say in how police act towards civilians. If you’re the police with three seats on a seven member board and you can’t convince one civilian out of four that what you’re doing is a good idea, then it’s likely a bad idea. And if you can’t convince civilians that what you’re doing is needed, you’re not going to get the buy-in needed to support you.
I still find it humorous that the only place that has such a policing system is Kansas City… they have the exact same problems as Indianapolis does and are trying to figure out how to return their police department to local control. But we’re going to copy what they’re doing?
Excuse me, but where do you have proof that the Mayor was in rehab during the riots? I’m guessing I’ve got just as much proof that Donald Trump was at a Klan Rally on inauguration night.
Thank you to the business community for stepping up again.
This seems to me to be a power grab by the state legislature. This is just one in a series of power grabs which includes a bill to curb the Governor’s authority to declare emergencies, as well as a bill to take control of the distribution of federal funds, such as covid relief. The latter situation, if passed, might be declared unconstitutional because it’s the legislatures job to legislate and the executive branch’s job to execute. In all of these cases, the state legislature is overstepping its authority in order to take control of everything they can, and that we allow them to do. Kudos to the business community for exerting their solidarity and purse strings to reverse the decision on the IMPD bills. The people win this one.
