Honestly, while I’m in favor of unions in general, I hate police unions specifically.
Because they’ve collectively bargained themselves into being completely above the law and untouchable.
This isn’t canned rhetoric, or speculation either. Cops, over 99% of the time avoid any kind of conviction when they kill people. To the point where they’re acquitted after having shot unarmed people in the back multiple times, as they flee. It’s frankly astounding the crap they get away with.
A literal guy with a gun the courts refuse to ever convict has plenty of bargaining power on his own without the need of a union.
