Seems like all of these firms begin their ‘studies’ with their conclusion already drawn, then create a narrative to prove what they have already decided.

Why the hell is the government trying to pin point these businesses? Shouldn’t they be trying to figure out if they qualify themselves then the govt verifying when they apply for said contract work?


This lady is a joke.

I see the BR mayor is learning from the Monroe mayor. They have had countless “studies” done on how to improve Monroe.

Guaranteed that she won’t like the findings and we never hear of it again.

I did Google the Denver firm. It is owned by a SJW white woman who went to Harvard. She is all into Gender Equity and shite like that. One of the firms out of the seven is owned by a white guy though. He ain't getting the work.

One of the firms is so shitty it doesn't even have a website. I bet that is the one they put together just to get this contract. Likely winner there.

The hypocrisy blows me away.

The seven firms being considered include:

Keen Independent Research, of Denver (Female)

Griffin & Strong, of Atlanta Euquant, of Atlanta (Black)

Miller3 Consulting, of Atlanta Mason Tillman Associates, or MTA, of Oakland (Black)

California MGT Consulting Group, of Tallahassee, Florida (Hispanic)

Abaci Research & Consulting, or ARC, of Bastrop, Texas (Doesn't Even Have a Website)

Let's all just be honest here. 99% chance the Atlanta and Oakland firms are minority owned and operated.* Chances they get picked and immediately find "bias" in the current Baton Rouge system?

$300K would buy 5 or 6 new patrol cars. Some of the cars in rotation right now are from the 90's.

This woman is a fricking joke. All of these firms are black owned and have an axe to grind. Look them up

She was included as the white face. She will, of course, back out of consideration in due time in order to stand with her brothers and sisters of marginalized communities everywhere by allowing one of the other firms to obtain the contract.
