I’m gonna like Attempt to live tweet this Boston budget meeting but I’m already irritated

Cops can’t show up on time, Campbell is already pushing the “we need a more diverse group of cops ” bullshit, IM TIRED

“Our goal is to keep communities safe” - cops who covered up a serial rapist for YEARS

Bok acknowledging that this same budget cut was proposed last year and the cops literally just said nah

Bok: so how are y’all gonna not go over the overtime budget this year
Hasson: *extended fart noise*

Still no real answer to address the amount of officers who are still out on “medical” leave creating this “forced” overtime (only 12% of the overtime is “forced”)

Bok: please give us the math on how y’all are going to realize this 1/3 cut
Cops: ...........math?

Campbell also acknowledging that this cut is the same as last year and that cut never materialized, also asking about officers involved at the Capitol, with Rose and one other case I didn’t catch

These cops literally sound like that “when when when When Whhhheeeen” tiktok

Capitol investigation: should wrap in weeks, same with McCale (cop who bragged about playing GTA and has also been accused of sexual assault), Rose case unclear

Campbell who spent all this time focused on the police oversight group is now asking cops about its progress and they are confused because they did not think that was their job......does anyone here know anything?

Michael Flaherty is just farting, honestly I am impressed that one person could sustain a fart for this amount of time, we should really hit up Guinness

He is now farting and deep throating a pair of boots at the same time, this man is extremely talented

Flaherty is again peddling the propaganda that all the cops playing medical hooky are doing it because they can’t see their doctors

McGoldrick on how staffing levels are calculated: “there’s no set way, there’s no formula” some methods include:
- per capita approach
- minimum staffing levels? (missed this one)
- authorized budget level
- crime trends
- work load model

He just said basically they’re too lazy to do the math so we should just give them half a billion and call it a day

McGoldrick talking about how there will be an outside vendor to calculate staffing levels, Flaherty “don’t get them from Seattle or Portland” eat shit old man

Here comes Breadon, licking boots as always, asking about BEST clinicians and how many cops have been vaccinated

I guess Allston is getting a singular BEST clinician, so a cop with the ability to section you cool cool cool cool

People: hey can we get some mental health resources that aren’t cops?
Boston: yeah for sure here’s some cops

Laughing that none of the cops can do math but again they want like half a billion to bully us

Assabi-George here to take credit for these Ativan cops which is possibly the most white woman behavior, now she’s worried about how poor little cops have to do homework now

She also wants more cops, shocker—she’s has such deep seated cop caller energy

I spelled her name wrong but I take that as my body rejecting toxins

I can’t wait until biased trained cops start killing people in culturally competent ways

Essabi-George thinks cops are understaffed, i would rather eat yarn than listen to her anymore jfc

Now time for the Flynn Boot Lick experience, worried about cop health and their families as if they don’t have health insurance paid by our fucking tax dollars

It’s just so blatant that all these people think that cops are literally worth more than a regular person, like I hope every single cop lies awake at night in agony—Flynn is worried about cop spouses, me too considering the self reporting 40% domestic violence rate by cops

Flynn wants to make sure that there’s a bough money for wealth and wellness as if they don’t get access to more resources and for free than a regular person ever would

Flynn wants more cops downtown—those fucks literally just sit in front of the Burger King until they can find someone to harass, the one time my friend and I saw a woman being assaulted downtown, WE HELPED HER, fuck your cops

Okay I don’t understand how he’s still talking with 16 boots in his mouth HES ADDING MORE HOLY SHIT, HES LIKE A SNAKE UNHINGING HIS JAW AM I ON NAT GEO

“Quality of life issues” = I’m tired of having to exist in the same space as people who aren’t white with have money

Oh my god all this bullshit about ATVs and dirt bikes, like open up some green space you dipwads, we can’t even go to the suburbs because y’all killed the weekend commuter rail, CITY PEOPLE DESERVE TO PLAY OUTSIDE TOO

We just spend a year in trauma and now they wanna crack down on house parties, but it’s totally cool and all to go congregate if it’s somewhere you spend money fuck off

Mejia again bringing up the “mental health” of cops LIKE FUCK THAT THEY DESERVE THAT, BRO I CANNOT GO TO COPLEY ANYMORE BECAUSE OF THE POLICE BRUTALITY MEMORIES BUT YEAH LETS WORRY ABOUT COP FEELINGS

Mejia: how are we going make sure we don’t have more rapists like Rose

LEMME ANSWER THAT FOR YA, ABOLISH THE POLICE

Lol this cop is talking about how police are vetted, they are vetted by OTHER COPS, like where is the Spider-Man meme

Arroyo coming back to Mejia’s point about stop and frisk—white category includes Hispanic as well skewing the data

None of these cops know how many people work for the police lol, literally scrambling.....again these people want a half a billion dollars lol

Arroyo getting specific numbers on groups like the gang unit, which has 42 cops? Sorry can only listen to this drivel for so long

Edwards is up, asking about the million dollar for racial training and equity training, cops are confused, think she’s taking about OPAT, which no one seems to know who is in charge of that

Apparently it’s separate from the million dollars for OPAT, it’s money to use on reforms OPAT recommends? This is exactly what we told you would happen—reforms just give cops more money and don’t fundamentally change anything

Quick break because I remembered I’m employed

Jk I’m back because Edwards is asking about McHale, GTA cop, and he is in fact still working

Frank Baker is up, I refuse to platform that loser and does zoom apparently because it seems he’s dropped from the call lol

This little goblin wants 400 more cops, I would like you to find yourself at the bottom of a very dark hole but we don’t always get what we want ya know

Every time Frank Baker speaks, I feel like I’m watching two girls one cup for the first time all over again

Baker talking about how some large property owner wanted to give space to cops, so why the fuck are you taking tax dollars you grimy fucks

They’re talking about encampments now and all I can hear is the cha Ching of dollars they spend on sending jerkoffs to harass homeless people instead of offering them GOOD HOUSING THAT MEETS ALL NEEDS, including pets and accessibility and storage

Wu is up, missed a bit but it didn’t seem like BPD answered anything so

Bok about to let public testimony start before next round of councilor questions, asking about progress putting jobs in civilian hands and asks about discrepancies in staffing data

Fatema from @MuslimJustice discussing Rose and how he was protected by other cops and how there is so much more community engagement now especially regarding defunding the police and funding the people

She discusses how repetitive this is, “wildly disrespectful continuing to approve a 400 million dollar budget again”
