Thank you. Again, I'll try to restate what I stated earlier. I appreciate your need for clarity. I'll do my best.
There were a wide range of reasons I considered a resignation, and there were a wide range of factors putting pressure on that. The singular one that I was focused on was public safety, which includes the safety of my members.
I've said it before and I'll say it again to you, sir. Anything that I could do, for any second that I held that office, to improve the likelihood of safe outcomes for the citizens of the city, including my service members, I was going to do. Literally the last thing I could do was to push the resources in to fully implement the plan that was ultimately successful.
