So 2020 presidential runner Pete Buttigieg has been in hot water lately in the town he is mayor of (South Bend IN) the black community is pissed at him because a Officer of the SBPD shot and killed a black suspect who approached him with a knife which he then threw at the officer.

Buttigieg whom is polling at 0% among black voters has made it worse for himself in their eyes as he approached this shooting in thoughts of political gain rather than trying to find a solution.

South Bend is a crime ridden city with multiple shootings a day.

He tried appeasing the black community by calling his police department racist. Which did not change the black community’s opinion on him and now he has pissed off his police department.

In a weak attempt to apologize he bought to police pizza instead of actuallly manning up and apologizing. He didn’t even bring it in himself.

Pete is top 5 and beats Trump in head to head polling. It's a sign if his strength that you're posting negatives on him. That said, not my first choice, he's way too moderate
