The crowd booed, because it took him too long to answer. Also we do not know how long he was talking before she asked him that question.
It seemed like they got tired of hearing him talk and then he was asked a question about being commited to defunding the police, which was yes or no, but he started beating around the bush in a hostile environment and then that was when things went left lol.
It's like your in war and then your captured behind enemy lines and they ask you a yes or no question, but instead of the yes or no answer, you start rambling and try to talk your way out, they just say off with his head.

I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree. I felt the crowd looked terrible here. that chick had a terrible attitude, save that energy for the police chief not the mayor who immediately called for the firings and charges to be brought on the pigs.
you don’t treat someone who has been on the side of the protesters by telling him to “get the fukk outta here”. just 30 secs before that chick took the mic, he was talking about how there needs to be police reform on how the department operates and the racist system needs to be revamped, and how the police union needs to be put in its place.

If you're the mayor and stepping into a volatile atmosphere filled with people rioting because police under your command lynched a man while being videotaped and only found themselves arrested after the country went up in flames, you don't respond the way he did. It's common fukking sense. Pay lip service, keep it moving and try to implement practical changes that meet some of the demands being made by the people you serve. He's no different than Pete Buttieg, a clean cut, technocratic white liberal who plays both ends against the middle.
fukk him.

I'm not disagreeing with you or agreeing. Politicians, Presidents, Police Dept. and Etc. have been talking about police reform since 1994 and nothing has changed. When they talk about police reform, that basically mean that the police department is going to get more money. Who is going to pay for these classes and racial training sessions the police officer have to attend to, it's the tax paying citizens, specifically the Black tax paying citizens who are still getting targeted and killed.
Justice Department Releases Report on Civil Rights Division’s Pattern and Practice Police Reform Work
The Justice Department released a comprehensive report today that provides an overview of the Civil Rights Division’s police reform work under Section 14141 of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994.
The report, “The Civil Rights Division’s Pattern and Practice Police Reform Work: 1994-Present,” is designed to serve as a resource for local law enforcement agencies and communities by making the division’s police reform work more accessible and transparent. It examines a range of topics, including the history and purpose of Section 14141, initiation and methodology of pattern-or-practice investigations, negotiation of reform agreements, the current reform model and its rationale, conclusion of agreements and the impact of pattern-or-practice enforcement on police reform and community-police trust. To supplement the report, the division also published an interactive Police Reform Finder, which allows users to search how reform agreements have addressed specific kinds of policing issues.
“Over the years, countless law enforcement officials and community members have requested additional information about the Civil Rights Division’s policing work,” said Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Vanita Gupta, head of the Civil Rights Division. “We hope stakeholders find our report and interactive tool useful in our collective efforts to advance constitutional policing, strengthen police-community trust and promote officer and public safety.”
Since 2009, the Civil Rights Division has opened 25 investigations into law enforcement agencies and is currently enforcing 19 agreements, including 14 consent decrees and one post-judgment order.

His fault! Your an elected official if you can't communicate effectively and eloquently to your supporters that's a you problem not a them problem!
As a mayor if you think that every time your going to speak with your constituents that it is going to be roses petals at your feet, don't do the job! If you can't face an angry mob and deescalate that situation promptly don't do the job. Load the answers at the front of questions and load the explanations at the back it's not that hard!
Either he needs to learn how to do the job quickly or get pushed to the side and make the community decide who can do a better job!

this is weird. the mayor who’s been on the side of the people is booed when he said he can’t support the full abolition on the police. did the crowd really expect him to say “yea, no more police”? why did the crowd “boo” that ?
the police need reform. they need at the minimum 2year degrees and courses heavy in ethics and sociology. they need to do away with internal investigations and create a board of city residents who review when cops get reported by local citizens. these police unions are too strong as well amongst other things.
on the other hand...if Frey wouldve just said “I fully support the demilitarization of police and allocating those funds to other causes” he would’ve been good.
that whole situation was awkward.
Agreed, you can't have no police. That create a state of chaos and confusion. Pure anarchy will come if that happens. So police and policing communities is needed. The entire "justice system" needs to change.
Secondly, taking the demand to an extreme, eventually will lead to a middle way.

Real bad look. People across the world are asking for change & looking at this. America has an idiot who is a white supremecist in charge. He failed a pandemic & failed at civil unrest. Claimed bankruptcy cause he failed at business.
He needs to get the fukk out so we can get real leadership & respect again.

I agree the whole disbanding police stuff was really goofy and makes the people who were leading that charge look like they have zero plans and are operating on 100% pure emotion . Whether that is true or not is to be seen .
Also defunding police won’t change anything.They’re not killing black men/women because they’re well funded.Defunding them will only lead to the departments using the excuse of “we didn’t have the funds to provide _____ because of budget cuts” when something bad happens .
If you want to tie a portion of their funds to specific incentives and reforms on a yearly basis I’d be down for that

Not having them walking around with call of duty weapons would be a start
