From Mayor Vi Lyles:
"This week is National Police Week – a time to honor the service and sacrifice of the men and women of @CMPD and law enforcement agencies across the country.
We also remember those who gave their lives in the line of duty and stand with the families who carry the legacy forward.
Thank you for your service and commitment to our community."
If you were to ask her, without a script she'd be unable to name one fallen CMPD Officer.
My requests for help repairing the Officer Robert L. Smith memorial has been met with crickets from the Mayor's Office.
And crickets as well from CMPD Chief Patterson. However, CP understands she has been made aware of the concern. Officers I've spoken to and some in command were not aware of the situation but have offered to help.
Since CP first made mention of the memorial someone has removed the faded photo and the plastic cover.
However, this uncovered a larger issue. At one point the memorial had a bronze relief image of Officer Smith. Then at some point the bronze image was removed and the make do fix installed. Shoddy work by someone perhaps with the county. Now the memorial has four screw holes in it that were not necessary had the bronze image been replaced.
Charlotte citizens are happy to write the check to fix this but still waiting to hear from Meck Park and Rec.
CP's Take: If anyone has a suggestion as how to move this effort to repair the market along I'd appreciate the assist.

CP Update: With the help of CMPD Officers, and Mecklenburg County Commissioner Susan Rodriguez-McDowell and others, Mecklenburg County Park and Rec staff stepped up and promised action to make the needed repairs.
Charlotte FOP Lodge 9 President Dan Redford has also contacted CP to offer assistance.
It might be a few weeks but Park and Rec staff promised results. We will stay on it and let you know.
Our FOP is about as worthless as the mayors office or our new Chief
ReplyDeleteReminds me of the memorial for Nobles and Burnette that some property management group decided it was ok to trash.
FOP got us our new outer carriers. Thank you Chief Jennings and Chief Bryley!
ReplyDeleteOr as worthless as you are crybaby. What action have you taken?
ReplyDelete1622..mid or high 7000? You weren’t around when Wes got hung out to dry and they shrunk up like your daddy doing a cold plunge.
DeletePay no attention to the children who are dumb, full of cum and piss. They too will grow up realize the people they want to help hate them and the world they want to change will be just fine regardless of what they do
DeleteAll of us were bright eyed until we saw the ligjt
ReplyDeleteThe light is blinding.
DeleteHey Cedar. Sounds like you can get a portrait or an image of some sort to place on the memorial. Get off your lazy ass and put it there and bill the FOP. I’m sure they will reimburse ya. Quit bitchn’ and just do it. Better to ask for forgiveness than permission.
ReplyDeleteMy nigga ceda,
ReplyDeleteYou need to do a post about the BLM Executiev Director stealing 3mil in charity donations!
Why is always us?
Why the NCAAP leader wanna say we need a black mayor? Isn’t that racist as hell?
DeleteIt’s genetically programmed in you all. Nothing against you, it just can’t be helped.
DeleteBlacks were violent in Africa and still violent over there. Cutting off arms and stealing from each other.
DeleteY’all need to open up a history book cause Europeans been in a constant state of war and destruction for all of history. Loved killing and stealing so much they branched out to other continents lmao
DeleteBlacks too…they were just too dumb and illiterate for it to be documented in anyway. Drawing with sticks in mud isn’t going to last for long.
DeleteIt’s just genetically programmed in whitey to be rapist and pedophiles.
ReplyDeleteActually..most sex offenders are black. Many black people report being abused by family members.
DeleteSerial killers on typically Caucasian and low educated.
Look at the FBI reports. Whitey is the highest sexual predators. It is very documented.
DeleteHey 838, real stats are 1-119 black men are registered sex offenders, which is double that rate of Caucasian men across 50 states.
DeleteThe more you know..💫💫💫
6:00 SYBAU , you can become a sex offender by pissing in a public park, indecent exposure, or doing anything that is considered lewd
