Especially since the whole "dragging their feet" thing was complete BS.
Apparently the city and various insurance companies are still arguing about who should pay for repairs, so most of the houses still haven't been fixed.

This is why the charges were dropped. The cops screwed it up so badly that even if there was a conviction, it would likely just get overturned on appeal.

Odds are it'll be something like this mounted on a Bradley base, as opposed to going back to the quad .50 half-tracks.

100% this. You make a bad show or movie with a white, straight cast, and nobody is going to claim it failed because of "non-wokeness" or any other reason than bad writing/acting.
