MALLORY'S PROTECTION EXPENSIVE

Today's headline in the online edition of the Cincinnati Enquirer deserves my immediate attention & some extensive blogging. Unfortunately, I don't have the time right now. Please check back later on today for at that time I should have a complete analyses on what I have found extremely disturbing for quite some time. I've wanted to delve deeper into this subject for awhile but due to other entries I've wanted to do continued to put it off.

I can not afford to wait much longer.

The headline in today's Enquirer I am referring to is titled: MALLORY'S PROTECTION EXPENSIVE

And later on today I'll inform you all of just how much more expensive it may become.....

LATER!

I am above scrutiny. I am above the law. We need all black cops and we need to make Cincy a chocolate city.

IF he needs full-time security, does it have to come from the upper echelon--the higher paid ranks? Couldn't he just get a contract security guard at a quarter the cost?

I don't know about you, but most of the durable/reputable contract security companies would charge about $45K for this gig. This matter calls for someone who has 1)a savvy sense of police procedure,
2)conscious street contact and creds, 3)able to be unusually direct with the Mayor about security issues without being overruled by staffers, and 4) someone the Mayor can trust implicitly. The ability to pack a weapon is also a necessity. A beef up in training for the security staff on duty at city hall should be coordinated for the safety of all of those in the building, and all citizens entering for any type of business. Hopefully Johnson HAS looked at that matter. This does not have to be done with the metal detectors, but ALL people should sign in and out to have a trail of who's who and what's might be not. Too many people bypassing security with friends and buddies that do not sign in and are, therefore, unaccounted for.

This appears to be ONLY about the Mayor. However, it is also about the Citizens in and visiting City Hall as well. We ALL need to feel secure and safe there.

The mayor isn't the potential target of a mafia hit. The security is simply a precaution. Street credibility? Unusually direct with the mayor? What sitcom have you been watching? So now the mayor needs intelligence out there taking the pulse of the community? What the hell is this based on? Will it extend to the mayor's family, friends, employees? You don't need Delta Force surrounding him for Christ Sakes. The most that might happen is that some irate citizen would start yelling at him and then his security could say, "Leave the mayor alone" or "Back away from the mayor." The shit that Luken had to take was unbelievable and he didn't have full-time security escorting him all over. He should at least be able to stand up to what Luken had to take and Luken still walked to the streets and mingled and lived downtown without security. All this invented intrigue just to support the mayor hiring his friend to hang out with him all day and still draw a fat paycheck is devious.
