"After becoming mayor, Emanuel did three unfortunate things to the Chicago police force:

1) He closed down detective bureaus in Chicago's highest crime districts and moved them elsewhere, sometimes quite far away.
2) Instead of increasing the number of police officers by 1,000, as he had promised during his campaign, he actually cut the number of police.
3) He disbanded many gang task forces.

Not surprisingly, when you don’t catch criminals, the result is more crime.

Admittedly, like many other cities, Chicago faced budget problems in 2011. But Emanuel decided to cut the police budget to fund his pet projects, like a new $20 million slush fund that Emanuel can use as wants. While Emanuel cut overall total city spending by $75 million, he asked the police slash their budget by $190 million. The cuts in police spending and elimination of their jobs financed infrastructure projects that aren't valued for what the projects build but “most importantly . .. [aimed at] creating 18,000 jobs over the next 10 years.”

Over the July 4 weekend, in Chicago alone, 16 people were shot to death and another 66 were wounded.

Rep. Luis Gutierrez’s central role in Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s re-election campaign comes as Latinos are seen as a particularly critical factor in the former Obama administration chief of staff’s effort to get another term.
