By 2017, shootings had risen 20% on Mayor Buttigieg’s watch. Rapes increased 27% and aggravated assaults rose from 183 in 2013, the year before Buttigieg took office, to a stunning 563 assaults.


AS I said...South Bend has been RUN INTO THE GROUND by the left's "Darling Buttigieg"; and now we should be considering letting him bring his record of FAILURE to the entire nation???



Really?




Mayor Buttigieg Runs for President While His City Bleeds
What the media isn’t reporting about a 2020 candidate from a failed city.



On March 31, a South Bend grandma brought her grandson to the hospital. The 11-month-old baby boy had been shot. His grandmother’s car had also taken fire. It was another early morning in South Bend.

Around the same time, Mayor Buttigieg, was toting up the $7 million in donations from his charm offensive as his bid for the 2020 Democrat nomination got underway. The national media never bothered reporting the shooting of an 11-month-old boy in the city he was supposed to be running, but instead confined its coverage of South Bend matters to a publicity stunt wedding officiated by Buttigieg.
The horrifying shooting of an 11-month-old boy on the millennial mayor’s watch was not an unusual incident. In the last few days, even as the media was gushing over Buttigieg’s presidential ambitions, two Indiana University South Bend players were injured in a shooting on Notre Dame Avenue, a blind date ended in a shooting, and yet another shooting added to the bloody toll in the real South Bend


Those are quite a few shootings for a city of barely 100,000 people. But South Bend is a violent place.
While Chicago is notorious for its murder rate, in 2015, Buttigieg’s South Bend actually topped Chicago’s 16.4 homicides per 100,000 people with a homicide rate of 16.79 per 100,000 people. Those numbers put Mayor Pete Buttigieg’s city on the list of the top 30 murder capitals in the country for the year.

Thanks for presenting the other side of Mayor Pete.

That South Bend is one of the 30 murder capitals in the country really blew my mind.

I had no idea that life had deteriorated so badly even in South Bend.

Very sad, but I guess inevitable,

16.79/100,000 gets you in the top 30?
Jesus. In Toronto it's something like 2.
 
There's a long history of politicians leaving their post to run for another office. For example The Apprentice really went downhill after Trump moved on...

And? Donnie Moscow ran for office with no end of lawsuits for defrauding contractors, Trump U being federally sued and with a boatload of women accusing him of sexual assault.

Extra points for posting the first whataboutism. ;)

Whoops - it seams that post #4 beat you by a nose.
 
Other than being gay he offers no qualifications whatsoever.
 
:yawn:

Get back to me when there's something problematic about Buttigieg that we actually need to know about. Next! :coffeepap
 
He must be doing something right. Elected to a second term by 80% of the votes.

That's because South Bend, Indiana is full of MAGA red-capped yahoos where 56.9% of the whole state voted for Trump.

A bit different than running on a RECORD OF FAILURE...

Bull****. You obviously don't know jack **** about St.Joseph county. Dem stronghold , and the MURDER RATE is not due to "TRUMP VOTERS"....get real.


Pete Buttplug has been an ABJECT FAILURE as mayor of South Bend....

To you being gay is a qualification for president?

That is a narrow scope but that is your right.

Boot edge edge is running on his sexuality, in case you haven't noticed.
 
Well, at least we know who Grok fears on the left.

Citing extreme right wing, completely unreliable, garbage propaganda Grok?? Are you trying to further destroy your almost non-existent credibility?

You guys must be positively wetting yourselves in fear of Buttigieg.

Reporting deliberately misleading crime stats is just one trick of the dishonest and biased online rag.

“However, police said the 171 percent increase in aggravated assaults resulted from a change in the FBI's definition, which now includes acts that would traditionally be classified as threats or intimidation, such as a threat to use a weapon or a gesture toward a weapon.

In reality, Buttigieg has an impressive resume;
- Son of immigrants
- Graduated (magma cum laude) from Harvard and Oxford
- U.S. Naval intel officer, served in Afghanistan
- At age 29, was elected mayor of South Bend (youngest mayor of any city with a pop 100+k)
- Re-elected Mayor in 2015, winning over 80% of the vote

Well, at least we know who Grok fears on the left.


Oh yes!! The EMOTIONAL INDICTMENT BULL**** AGAIN....it's like 1995 with the DP Left, and they just now read "Rules for Radicals".


Hysterically funny.

Yes...pointing out his FAILURES = "afraid". :lamo

And when the tougher kid stuffed you in the toilet in middle school , he was showing how "afraid" of you he was.... :lol:


Hilarious .
 
Buttegg seems to think so, since he mentions it almost every time he's in front of a microphone.

Skin color, gender and genital preference are the IMPORTANT THINGS to the Animal Farm DNC....


Actual ability to govern is a distant fourth...if it is even that high on the list....
 
Bull****. You obviously don't know jack **** about St.Joseph county. Dem stronghold , and the MURDER RATE is not due to "TRUMP VOTERS"....get real.

Your superfluous cursing tells me you're feeling a little butt-hurt, are you? Facts don't lie. Trump won Indiana with a 56.9% majority.
