She could restructure BPD to more effectively police high crime neighborhoods to eliminate the sense of lawlessness and dismantle the gang culture tolerated to exist in certain neighborhoods + Boston Public Schools. So far no recent mayor(s) beyond Flynn and Menino early on have been willing to do that out of being racist (Mayor White) or being afraid of being called racist (latter Menino, Walsh), or plain woke idiots pupetteered by out of state agenda $$$$ (Janey and Wu).Blaming a mayor for a gang related murder is like blaming a president for a mass shooting. Yes Wu is trash but I’m not gonna say “it’s her fault!” when some loser shoots someone in Boston
The city has the tax base and capability to do many great things and doesn't because there's no will to do so and there's a culture of siphoning off the funding for essential services for patronage nonsense.
