How About NYC Cops & Smoke Eaters Strike For The RNC Convention

[stopbush]

- unless bushco delivers the entire $20 BILLION it promised NYC after 9/11? The attacks cost the city almost $100 Billion. * promised the money and Rumsfeld even made a trip later in 2001 and again promised the money. The convention is going to cost alot to protect. That money could sure help. I say it's time for a job action - blue flu, you know?

How much of that $20 Billion has actually made it to NYC? Anyone know?

1. Oh....that is a sweet thought........

I hope they take this to task.

2. uh, that would result in countless deaths

Fire/EMS and cops should not strike, period.

Picket, sure, but not strike.

5. Hey, I lived in NYC for 20 years. I'm pissed, not nuts.

Worst case scenario - the rethugs end up cancelling their NYC convention and move it to Houston. BFD. Fuck em.

4. Capital Idea!

I can't believe those F**kers actually have the balls to show up here after shafting us on homeland security funds.

I would love to see the cops bail during the convention.... and the firefighters, service people, waitstaff, hotel employees, taxi drivers, etc., etc.
