Is he serious!! I’ve never seen O.C. this bad... still no curfews and no cops around... what a joke...

Communication...check!

Now ACTION!

Make that a PSA and plaster it everywhere.

Arrests will be made and strong convictions pursued. Without consequences and accountability there will be mob rule by lawless individuals at the expense of local families and business. End this now, Chief, Mayor, and Council!

Chief Bazzaro you dropped the ball as did the mayor look forward to Not getting Re elected.

Everyone is bashing on the mayor and council but the buck starts and stops with the police chief. Where's he been sleeping? Everyone knows June can be a challenge for OC and especially the police department for years now. Add to that the riots that have been going on since right after Memorial Day nationwide and he should have already been prepared. It's called being a forward thinker which is imperative for someone in his position. The second the riots started all over the country he should have been preparing for June in Ocean City and had the streets and boardwalk flooded with LE prior to any trouble starting.

Actions speak louder than words. Just go out and kick some ass. Or bring in a security detail to do it for you. DO YOUR JOB!!!

These animals don’t even respect themselves! No one is ever safe from people like that! Look forward to seeing what is going to be done different going forward!!

Where did the brain trusts of OC dig this stooge up from? Making excuses for the criminals saying 'tension' is in the air.
Bottom line he should have already been prepared.

What BS should’ve called in the National guard failure to do so has cost lives ... every business on the boardwalk should close for the season and then maybe these cowardly fools will get the message

Words words words, you will be treated with respect and professionalism. Please be kind to one another. Those spoken words are going out to the good guys, the citizens that are looking for help from you. A tough stance has to be taken to the trash that is sleeping now and not listening to your soft message. Time to retire again sir.

Oooooooook? And it that not a little late? Anyone with a little pride, work ethic, commitment to the community they serve could have been out there a week or ten days ago, and would have seen this coming. Chief, your always reactive just like the M&CC, not proactive like your predecessor. To little to late I’m afraid.

The Chief playing catch up after the Mayor held him back. Additionally, it’s the Mayor in a complete power struggle now in complete damage control. Both PIO’s will tell you this, as well as any commander in the PD, and a couple councilman that are fed up. Hey, you get what you vote for!

At least he didn't call them "peaceful demonstrations"!

I work for the man, and have lost all respect. We bust our asses, risk our lives, and he’s much more concerned with politics than our lives! My Commander is ready to quit, he’s barely hanging on, just for us. Thanks from the bottom of our hearts Captain!

They were WARNED and were NOT prepared. Period!!! Now they are trying to cover their butt. NOT happening. O.C. is destroying their OWN reputation and many will chose to VACA elsewhere with their hard earned dollars. As for me, I wouldn't go to O.C. on a bet and I live here on the shore...

- June IS a challenge for OC (many many many years worth of examples)

- water has boiled for years, old days it wasn't known with the rest of the world since there was only newspapers and local news. Today - its a snap of a finger and LIVE while happening. The old guard just doesn't know what to do with all this publicity or trying to think it will go away.

- agreed being PROACTIVE rather than reactive (take a page from our US Military mindset) and adjust from there. When those who break the law know they can break the law....what are they gonna do?

- where are our undercover folks at? We pound our chest as a society when they do good things yet people are now DYING at the hands of troublemakers OR last night by a vehicle collision on Coastal Hwy.

I suppose everyone is on guard now with societal matters - yet the perceived lack of action is truly troublesome and its a field day with corrupt.

The police do not have a duty to protect.

Love the Headline "Addresses Violent Incidents".....He didn't address anything! What A LOAD!! F Ocean City! Stay tuned for tonight's Ghetto Fest...

Buzzoro = Meeley mouth bullshitter trying to make up for a liberal inaction and trying to pacify the residents to save his F*&^%^%king job. This load of lead in the ass needs to go now. Heehaw Meehan is his promoter in the joke of law enforcement (OCPD). Leroy Duggan was a pain in the ass but effective in being proactive. Think of the millions of bucks being lost with the economy in the tank now compounded by criminals casting an aura of 'criminals running the show at night'. What dumbass doesn't know the nighttime 'protesting' is because they can't be detected on surveillance and allowed to escape scott free. Where are the special overtime incentives to put extra cops on the boards in the timeframes of this happening.
Another paper pushing ass being paid blood for nothing but talk. Can him now and if Heehaw Meehan doesn't like it send him with Buzzoro.

We need quick strike police teams every few blocks on Boardwalk. Taze em and haul em. Let the judge figure it out. How about OC Guardian Angels.

Gee, I wonder how many of the teens who visited and those who were paid to go there heard this worthless speech. Truth be known, the chief and command staff had no idea how to take action. This never would have been allowed to happen when real police worked there.

Ross was a Baltmore come here, and has played politician from day one. First all the rowdy car groups, then several years of decline throughout the year. He manipulates crime numbers as a snake oil salesmen, and the Mayor owns him. How did it work out for Recor? Same gonna happen here. Just a matter of time.

The OCPD Chief came from the Baltimore PD street squad. He’s doing what he did there, NOTHING!

Councilman Matt James has posted on Facebook and picked up by local media running rouge crying for action. Been saying, he’s gunning for the Mayor, and bet your last nickel the Police Chief will be collateral damage as he’s terminated.

Police union's support Democrats. So you did this to yourselves. Ironically you pay for these protesters to make your lives hell. Why haven't we heard from any unions about defunding the Democrats.

This Chief and Barb are two peas in a pod, utterly worthless. Both need to remove their heads from their Mayors rear end and do what they took an oath to do. Serve the public!

Let’s concentrate on open containers, loud cars, spinning tires, bringing every cop in the state to help on overtime, but let the boardwalk go to hell. Ross was told to stand down. Throw Rick out next election, and then fire Buzzero.

This is the consequence of prioritizing dollars over lives during a pandemic. If the virus doesn’t get you the violence from outsiders will.

This is what happens when you have a hiring panel that knows absolutely nothing about police detective and patrol function work.The limit of their knowledge along these lines is saying 'he's a nice guy'.
The sum total of one's effectiveness in a 'pinch situation' should have been considered. The ability of one to function with short staff and seasonal force strength is a variable to manage without saying so and other forms of crying about skills one should be required to be the top cop.
You can't put all the blame on him because the politicians hired him with the tongue in cheek understanding to not bother the home boys and those who spend money here.
Meehan and the Mickey Mouse council doesn't know you can't have it both ways. Hard charger or pussy-choose now. How many dollars does the Town lose because people are afraid to come here?
A self made debacle that shows just how bad a decision people who are stuffed shirts can make affecting the residents of a summer resort and has no signs of subsiding because its been going on for years unchecked. One dud after another, Papas,Dipino,Buzzoro, with no end in sight of loser Chiefs.
Time for the people who provide the money to rebel and clean house and in the hierarchy also.
Unbeknownst to there so called Council persons, there are agencies whose speciality is screening for executive positions. They're as close as a phone call or E-mail. But we all know politicians know best and are infallible. Just look at Congress. Scream loud folks and force them to do the right thing,now!

Fire Him and send Bob Harris down there and get him out of Pittsville where he can spend 140k of taxpayers money and it not be missed.

Also I think Ocean City is one of the few police agencies he has not been terminated from.

This con man is spending taxpayers money like he spent his credit into bankrupty.
