Portland’s white police chief quit suddenly on Monday—and tapped a black police lieutenant to replace her, saying “he’s the exact right person at the exact right moment” for the job, according to a report. Jami Resch, who had been top cop in the Oregon city for less than six months, made the announcement in the wake of widespread criticism of the department’s handling of massive protests over the Memorial Day death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, The Oregonian reported. “I have asked Chuck Lovell to step into the role as chief of the police bureau,” Resch said at a press conference Monday.

How many major US cities have black police chiefs and how does that work out for them?

In other words, Jami Resch knew she wasn’t up to the job and figured it’s better for some other poor b——d to catch what hits the fan!

ChitCago has a black police chief who recently came under fire for being found drunk in his police vehicle. No neec to repeat but black on black murders may be the highest in the US

If I remember correctly, the previous police chief in Portland was Danielle Outlaw via Oakland. She is now the police chief in Philadelphia. Hmmmm, a pattern seems to be emerging.

If you want to really be politically correct, choose a black Muslim woman cop for the job.

While she is at it I'd sell my house and get the hell out of Portland. That way when the poop hits the fan she is far, far away. This is the beginning of summer. A favorite time for blacks to shoot other blacks for any reason. I would not be hanging around any big democratic city who really believes that the police is the problem and not the criminal element in their mist.

#3 is correct. It will only get worse there in the near future> She sees what's coming. Better to grab that pension and move as far away as you can.

A Lieutenant, that's nuts.
Good luck Portland, you guys are in for a rocky ride, I predict.

We are royally screwed here in Portland. I avoid downtown now, since, as an old white male, I might get beat up unless I walk around yelling "F* Trump!"

Interesting that the outgoing chief names the replacement. Usually the mayor appoints the chief.

I have an idea. Have a "progressive" leader to sit with the 911 callers and when a call comes in THEY choose which calls get answered. If a cop is going to pull over a black person he/she has to check in for permission to do so. That way if there is a problem the progressive will be the one we find fault with. It is always easy to find fault after the fact. Better yet put a progressive in each car and let them make the calls.If I were a cop I would NEVER pull over a person of color-for any reason.
The other thing is to put progressives in every cop car. THEY make the decisions. I will be sure to critique them after they make mistakes. Have them make the split second calls.

Probably a career move by the departing chief.
When Portland defunds their PD, she'd be selling pencils on the street.
Besides, Portlandia is the citadel for Antifa.
And those people are a real pain.

# 6 if they did that, the LGBQ's, the pro abortion crowd, and the defocrats would all have their collective panties in a wad unless the litmus test was passed in all categories. And, yes, it appears this Chief overstepped her authority as only the mayor is authorized to nominate a replacement. But who needs rules in this day and age?
