Chicago alderman forced to abandon pledge to camp out in crime-ridden ward after narrowly missing gunfire
Fox News
David Moore was forced to reverse course on his pledge to camp out in a high-crime area of his ward after a shooting broke out just feet from his tent.
"What is going to take is this administration and certain policies to uncuff… take the handcuffs off our police," Moore told "Fox & Friends" Monday. "We have to make sure that they have the tools, including the item called ShotSpotter. They detect gunshots, making sure that they have the tools that they need to combat these problems. We need to stop listening to all of these activists… where White progressives are making a whole bunch of money to tell Black people what to do in their community and telling them to stop things like car stops in order to get guns and drugs off the street."

"These type of policies are hurting our communities, keeping young people from being able to come out and play and seniors able to sit on their porches," he continued.
