In government's case I would say absolutely management and unions are in bed. There is no reason for them not to be.

I was trying to explain my overall position. I'm not a kneejerk cop defender, I currently think they should be ashamed of the way they view us overall ($), but they do have to take care of their legitimate business.

I don't think this incident has much to do with unions.

In my opinion, it has to do with being a cop in Stockton. Law enforcement covers some rough territory in Stockton and I'm sure they develop an attitude of sorts for the sake of survival.

Not saying the attitude is right or wrong.... It just is.

There is a saying around these parts for when a violent incident occurs...... Locals say, "hey, this is Stockton...." And that seems to sum everything up, rightly or wrongly.

Still can't read? Go back and look at the first sentence again. Up until, and even after, the Hebron massacre(s) they bought the land they needed from the Palestinians. Some part of the violence was Arab annoyance at the Palestinians for selling the land.

That was me calling on Pete giving a typical Pete response. It wasn't that long ago San Jose had no murders at all. But then it wasn't that long ago my city was number one or maybe it was two.

Except when dealing in situations where an absolute has already been uttered. If you don't engage, you never apprehend.



That would be a FAILED argument.
As with most of your participation here...the above would all be bloated pompous-ass opinion.

Don't confuse the little fella with historical facts...he's busy working his ass off to maintain the zealotry. When was the last time he responded to someone with intelligence and factual information with anything but childish bluster?
