We've been saying this was coming for the last five or six years that I've been in office, the rate of attrition, we are not keeping up with it. They're not actively going out looking for more police officers to take this job. You actually have city council members pushing to defund the police department, take more money away from them, allocate it to other departments, we're pushing a boulder up the hill right now. And if we don't get all on the same team and we're not all working in the same direction, we're going to lose our city as quick as we can believe it.
