So, everyone on the left came to he aide of the Police after the Right Wing

[WCGreen]

extremists across the country decided to balance the budget on the backs of those who serve and protect us.

And yet the police come down with force on those who are standing up to the tyranny of the financial elite.

Tell me again why the left came out in support of the Police...

[Dawson Leery]

1. 1) Police need NO UNION. When you serve the "Powers That Be", you already have too much power.

I have always opposed, and WILL always OPPOSE union representation for state agents.

2) It is time for a law that strips ONLY the collective bargaining rights of
Law Enforcement Officers and FORBIDS unionization by any state agent with the authority to make arrests or press charges against the citizenry.

2. Police officer is an abstract construct that should be rethought. nt

3. how have the police been acting in wisconsin

i have not read about cops being violent in madison, perhaps those cops remember who stood up for them.

[Scuba]

4. Off-duty cops were front-and-center in Madison supporting the protesters....

.... there were a zillion interactions between police and protesters - cordial, mutually-supportive interactions.

[reggie the dog]

5. it appears that police in wisconsin side with other union members

then, which goes against the idea that all cops are just right wing tools,

[Scuba]

6. Bingo.

[hootinholler]

7. Simple

Because it was the right thing to do.
