As members of the community wear orange for “Gun Violence Awareness Month” we at the PBA must point out that we are only two weeks into June and there have been 9 Shootings with 11 Shooting victims so far.
Orange shirts won’t stop violent crime in Buffalo. Police can prevent and solve violent crime in our City. The department is understaffed and our members are stretched too thin.
We have been without a contract for 351 days! It is impossible to recruit and difficult to retain without a new, dynamic and creative, contract.
