Baltimore police union criticized for tweets after acquittal

Updated 1:46 pm, Saturday, June 25, 2016

BALTIMORE (AP) — Baltimore's police chief and City Council president are criticizing the city's police union for online posts that appeared to celebrate an officer's acquittal in the death of a 25-year-old black man.

A judge acquitted Officer Caesar Goodson of all charges Thursday. Goodson drove the van in which Freddie Gray's neck was broken. Goodson was one of six officers charged in Gray's 2015 death.

The Baltimore Sun (http://tinyurl.com/z6zee67 ) reports the police union sent a tweet Friday night with a photo of actor Leonardo DiCaprio making a toast, with text reading, "Here's to the Baltimore 6 defense team." Another tweet referred to State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby as "the wolf that lurks." The tweets have been deleted.
Police Chief Kevin Davis and Council president Jack Young called the tweets insensitive and inappropriate.

2. Break the God Damn, Mother F**cking police "unions" up.

They are nothing but mafia protection rackets for criminals.

I would remind you the Bridgeport CT police "union" endorsed Joe Ganim. Enough said!

Why does this primitive keep putting the word union in quotation marks?

That sounds like a genuine union to me.

3. Those particular racketeers have their defenders here on DU, though.

Improbably -- or now, perhaps, probably -- enough.

Dawson Leery needed reminding that democrat underground doesn't just advocate for Mexican fence jumpers, Muslim savages, and guys who want to use the women's can--they are for the working man too, just not as high up on the list.

H-5 earned by that thread title, and duly issued! Delicious irony!

Actually, the quoted Tweets are very appropriate, and the latter one quite accurate. Mosby demagogued her way into office, and went Nifong on police officers who simply did their jobs. She deserves Nifong's fate, but the wheels of that justice turn slowly, and are only just starting to try to turn. Sadly, she has in her power to afflict injustice on 3 more officers, and heap more injustice on the officer whose trial ended in a hung jury.

Hey Dawson! When thugs are shooting up your neighborhood or beating the @#$% out of you, be sure you call the ACLU. Chances are, they know the thugs quite well and might be able to persuade them to move on to another victim.

Like 98ZJ, my first reaction was, "Who?". Maybe I subconsciously sensed potential for amusement, but I Googled "Joe Ganim". Sure enough, I found the amusement in the early paragraphs of the article.


:ownit:


Somehow I suspect DU-folk spoke rather differently of him when Joe Ganim was investigated for and convicted of corruption during GWB's Administration.

If there were an accounting & finance union, they would despise that as well.

They are dummies. They like and dislike based on the emotional dump opinion of the moment. The current opinion is hate the cops... so by extension they hate anything associated with cops up to and including their union.   :cheersmate:

If you really insist on a guy in a tie doing all your negotiating for you, more power to ya. I wouldn't want a union personally, but if somebody insists, that's what right to work is for.
