!!! Public Safety Alert !!! - From the Tucson Crime Free Coalition

TCFC is issuing this alert to inform our members of a growing and serious public safety concern that Mayor Regina Romero and the Tucson City Council are failing to address.

Earlier today, there was another violent hatchet attack at a public bus stop in Tucson. Two people were injured in the incident. TCFC is monitoring the situation and will provide more information as it becomes available.

This is not an isolated event. The City’s Free Bus Fare is facing significant safety issues. TCFC believes it’s time for riders to reconsider their options. If you must use public transit, please take precautions and remain highly alert at bus stops.

Here is a list of violent incidents that have occurred at or near Tucson bus stops in just the last five weeks:

The facts are clear: our bus stops are becoming danger zones. This is a direct result of failed leadership and refusal to take action on issues that matter to the safety of our residents.

Until our elected officials take responsibility and implement serious solutions, these attacks will continue.

Please stay aware, stay safe, and demand better for Tucson.

    Replace the present Mayor, the Tucson City Council and Tucson’s biggest problem will go away.

    The crime we also need to be talking about is that more than one person dies every three days due to cars. Compare that to violent homicide or any other crime; our cars and roads have already 48 deaths this year. That is on track to surpass 2021 homicide rate, which was our highest homicide year in the last decade. I get that these attacks are important, but getting rid of the alternative to cars (cars being our largest source of preventable deaths) is not the correct solution.

    Thank you for keeping us up to date on what’s really happening. You are correct, we do deserve better

    If anyone thinks these are drug addled insane people that can be fixed…Please guess again. The use of hatchets and machetes comes from outside the US and has spread as a weapon of choice for many crazed and insidiously angry people that are coming into our country. I suggest 3 choices. 1st: you are offered one of the choices. They are, You get jail time. Along with that is a hard detox. No special medications to soften the blow. You made the choice to destroy your mind and body, you will feel the pain of withdrawal. 2nd choice: You get sent to Mexico to have Ibagain Treatment. A 90% success rate of actually curing the addition. Only Mexico has it at this point ( See Joe Rogan/ Rick Perry Podcast) Possible a 2nd treatment has to be done. 3rd choice: You are given a chance too turn yo god for your immortal soul and given a big bag of fentanyl. It’s .20 cents a tab so it’s cheap. You will probably be found OD’ed somewhere and the hope is you find eternal peace in the Lord and are forgiven all sins and made whole in heaven. Now. this sounds harsh correct? It is. We can no longer enable these souls back to life. They must choose life or death. I know of what I am speaking of. I have lived thru the hell of a child addicted. There is hope. BUT enabling is not it. As to the crimes of attacking with guns, swords, machetes, whatever. You take a life. yours is over. With Conover unwilling to do her job correctly as she sees every browner than her coloration as a new case for being downtrodden, we have 0 hope of help legally. Carry a Byrna. It’s legal in every state. It’s not a gun. All the communists in charge see is more tax burden on John Q Public. Had enough yet?

    Stabbing was at Udall park tonight at the bus stop. Why won’t the mayor stop this nonsense. 5 years x 30 million a year equals a sinful 150 million that could have gone towards housing rehab etc. Start today force these free bus rides to stop take all the tents in the eighteen encampments put back that were for immigrants and put all the homeless in there now and get them healed healthier and ready to be a part of society again. If the mayor would get the camps up again and cough up 10 million I have 42 million today to get the show started.
