Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot and the city's top cop said slain officer Ella French's name wrong a combined three times this week.
Lightfoot called her 'Ella Franks' Thursday night, and Chicago Police Department Superintendent David Brown called her 'Ella Fitzgerald' twice earlier this week. That's on top of denying French an honor guard bagpipe procession from the hospital to the morgue, a customary and symbolic act of respect for an officer killed in the line of duty. French, 29, was gunned down in a shootout while conducting what seemed like a routine traffic stop on Saturday.
Because neither could care less about the rank and file police. They only show up when a cop is killed because that is what is expected, but deep down they loathe honoring any cop. You can tell just by watching how much it rankles both of them to have to do it.

After the next mayoral election, let's hope the People of Chicago get Lightfoot's name wrong if and when they call her MAYOR Lightfoot. Calling her EX-mayor Lightfoot sounds much better to my ears.

If you don’t understand by now that nine out of ten black people hate this nation and all wypipo, then you’re stuck on stupid and yes, a beautiful Hispanic woman is considered white by these racists. Am DONE with the Bobby Kennedy wannabes. My 57 years on this planet have been FULL of black on white racism and violence at every venue, school, playground or workplace. Won’t mention what I’ve been doing lately (because this is an old woman’s forum) but it’s violent and satisfying. At my age, I may not have the current level of power and skill for much longer and will pop a keyboard warrior in their soup cooler before it can finish the sentence in which wypipo are blamed for everything. Done with them.

The Mayor and Police Superintendent are certainly batting 1000 when it comes to offending the rank and file officers in regard to the Officer French death. The Mayors totals tone deafness to the entire situation.... The Police Superintendent's skipping the bag pipe send off of her body and now botching her name. These two supposed leaders could at least get the name of a fallen officer correct. Their disregard for the police is certainly being highlighted by their actions. Can't wait to see how they offend at the funeral.

Ella Franks?
Ella Fitzgerald?
"Ella Fitzgerald is the name of an award-winning jazz singer who died in 1996."

CHICAGO (CBS) — "Jamel Danzy, the Indiana man charged with buying the gun that was used in the murder of Chicago Police Officer Ella French, has been released from custody while he awaits trial on federal charges.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Jeffrey Gilbert ordered Danzy’s release from federal custody on Wednesday, citing the fact he has no prior criminal record, and that he has a job as a teacher’s aide in Merrillville, Indiana. Danzy was released on a $4,500 unsecured bond.

Tone-deaf, insensitive in a maximum way. Shameful.
Democrat behavior. Elitist behavior.

Clarification: Hispanic is an ethnicity. Hispanic is not a race. Unless Hispanics have Indian blood, they are Caucasian race.

But....they care, they REALLY care!
Can you imagine the head of any company not making sure to know, and how to pronounce the name, (Ella French is a pretty tough one ) of an employee killed on their watch? This on top of the bagpipes debacle?
Beyond shameful!

Mayor Dailey was a first-class POS, but even he never showed such contempt for any public servant, never mind a police officer killed in the line of duty. The horrible little troll is a disgrace to humanity. I hope that the black people who are the majority of the body count in the city will wake up and send her ass packing. She is absolutely worthless.

Does Lori Lightfoot remind anybody else of Uncle Fester from the classic "Addams Family" TV show? No need to get into a costume for Halloween...she is
scary enough already.

Every real cop in Chicago should move to a Red Zone.

Maybe Lightweight could tattoo officer Ella Frank’s name on her arm next to George Floyd’s name.
