what is the big thing we need to do? what is your one piece of advice? i say we d have to improve the police and community relations. because here in chicago, we have homicide rate at an abysmal like 18%. that means like 82% of the crimes, the murders are not being solved. there s something wrong with that. and that has to be fixed. but you know when you have police officers saying let s end the snitching, a pattern of no snitching, you have to look internally. because they have that issue within the police department as well. so, you know, the pot can t call the kettle black. we have to end that game all around town. trace: reverend acree and randall, you re doing great work. best of luck to you and your city and thanks for coming on. can i say one more thing? yes, sir. i appreciate it.
not caught. is that fair in your estimation, reverend randall? it s not fair but look at the words of dr. king. have misguided missiles and misguided men. we have to deal with the lack of mental health institutions where where a lot of them are foes in the city. a lot of one-on-one walking time bombs ready to explode any given minute. you never know who will be next. trace: you know, mayor lori lightfoot, speaking of blaming, she says we re all fighting a losing battle. if the guns keep streaming over the border from indiana and from southern states, except the homicide rate in indiana, other states like michigan, wisconsin combined, reverend acree are not nearly what chicago is and you have people like the alderman,

step up. families, we re asking them to step up. certainly we need political leaders to have the will to do something other than just point fingers. trace: right. a good point, reverend randall. what do you make of that? what do you make of the mayor? what do you make of the decisions being made at the top saying they should bring congress in when really some say it s what is being done on the streets? it is what is being done in these key neighborhoods? i think the major made a huge mistake bringing in an outsider from texas and head the chicago police department. she should have brought in a rank and file that knows the streets, knows the gangs and we would not we would have more progress than we re having problems with. trace: it s amazing to me. lastly, reverent acree to you. what would you say the biggest thing the police commissioner and the inspector can do and say
