This is so crazy. I used to live in Dolton. Chief Collins is a cool dude. He is exactly right. Police departments all over the country are experiencing a staffing shortage. Dolton is no different. In fact, Dolton needs the police more due to the increased in crime over the years. As a former resident of Dolton, im very concerned about the safety. I moved my mother from Dolton due to the bs from this mayor and she using the police as Secret Service agents instead of having them patrol the streets to stop crime. This mayor has got to go!

I definitely can contest to this. Both of my my grandparents are gone now they both lived in Dolton I couldn’t imagine what they would have to encounter if they were still alive living there. I moved four years ago from Dolton and the was the biggest blessing. The police chief is crooked and the mayor well… no words. I pray there is a change because If not the residents are gonna suffer. All the evidence is there but she still in office. Make it make sense. She a very cold person and is very fake believe me I met her. She wants all the light on her and her motives for supporting the community she be looked into

[@Mikebuddy2229]

I think this would be a wonderful opportunity to pause for a moment and give thanks for the great contributions of the Black community to our society. Their peaceful and generous nature make them ideal neighbors, lending testimony to their exceptional family values and parenting skills unrivaled by any other culture. Their commitment to academic excellence enriches our schools and serves as an example to all who hope to achieve prominence as a people. Real estate values are fueled by the mix of African Americans into an area due to their caring and respectful nature of these communities, an example of all they have achieved through their enthusiasm for self-improvement by hard work and a self-reliant can-do nature.
