Yep. Same car all 3 times lmao. Was stolen, stereo jacked, and then just joy rode & abandoned somewhere. 1993 Jeep Cherokees were apparently easy to steal lol.

The new mayor openly campaigned on being super radical and he won.

He took infrastructure funfs and dolled it out to that bullshit '"equity nonsense".

Go woke, go broke and thirsty

It was a white jeep!

BTW, they blame white flight in the 1970s for causing the problem.

Why did they want all those white supremacists to stick around?

If you can't get your shit figured out in 50 years then maybe it's time to disincorporate as a city.
