Zazzy Mayor Pete Whatshisname

South Bend activists and administrators have demanded the resignation of Mayor Pete Buttigieg after what they say is an inadequate response to a police shooting of an African American man.

"Pete is a fraud," former president of South Bend's Board of Public Safety Pat Cottrell told the Washington Free Beacon on Monday.

Cottrell said the 37-year-old South Bend mayor has a poor record on racial issues and administrative control.

"Right now there's no way he can stand on the stage and honestly talk about the issues pressing this country when he can't even successfully address the dire issues of race, lack of diversity, and poverty, not to mention the homeless issue in this city," [said Mario Sims, a pastor and activist].

"If you can't even address those issues in a city of 100,000, my God, how can you address those issues in 50 states?" he added.

Buttigieg also held a town hall where protesters shouted "liar" and "we don't trust you!"
