Police Pushback in Portland

| No Comments

Good for them - show some spine. From The Oregonian:

Police union president announces ‘no confidence’ vote in Portland’s City Council
The executive board of the Portland police rank-and-file union voted “no confidence'' in Portland’s City Council, questioning why city commissioners aren’t condemning the violence, fires and damage to businesses occurring in the city at the hands of some demonstrators.

Officer Daryl Turner, president of the Portland Police Association, on Wednesday repeated a criticism he has made in the last week that “a small number of people have hijacked'' important calls for social justice and racial equity and “used the cover of peaceful protests to burn and loot our City.”

Good - put them on notice that their actions have consequences.
