Default Orange County Deputy Sheriffs Assoc endorsed Gavin Newsom

I stand corrected, my friend told me it was the OCSD association that endorsed Gavin Newsom and every pro criminal /BLM / sanctuary state / illegal immigration / early release / prop 47-57 supporting Sacramento democrat standing for reelection in OC!!! How can this happen??

That’s a damn shame. I agree the unions don’t speak for the officers, but that still sets a horrible precedence.

Well the officers are RESPONSIBLE because quite simply, THEY VOTE FOR THE UNION LEADERSHIP. And when the union leadership endorses all those anti- second amendment, pro criminal / liberal judges / sanctuary state / BLM / prop 47-57 democrats, the drive by voter thinks the endorsed Democrats are good for public safety. It could not be further from the truth as we all know.

The LEO unions let the democrats HIDE behind those endorsements, lying to the public and making California less safe for the rest of us.

The membership who votes in the union leadership OWN the endorsements...EVERY OFFICER/DEPUTY OWNS the resultant public policy's of the the politicians they ALLOW their union to endorse.

Does ANYONE really think that if all the LEO unions/ assoc came out publicly and TOLD THE TRUTH, that the policies and platform of the democratic party / majority in Sacramento are BAD for pubic safety, that the democrats could 1) continue to promote those policies or 2) maintain their majority?

We are getting closer and closer in the state where its time for LEO's to force their unions / assoc to STEP UP and take the right side....before its too late!

If the Union member LEOs would stop supporting these Democrats we wouldn't have half of the restrictive laws that we do. Unfortunately at least 50% + 1, union LEOs are only concerned about their pensions and perks and are willing to sacrifice the rest of the State to keep them.

I guess it's like everyone else, it's "what's in it for me?"

I cant tell you how many LEO's I know who have or plan to "take the money and run", retiring out of the state they sold down the river...

Well, yes and no. Not every sworn member votes for union officers that are pro democrat politician.

The issue is (and this will get your goad), that police unions (just like teacher’s unions, nurse’s unions, firefighter’s unions, air traffic controller’s union, and ALL unions across the country), endorse democrats because of their stance on pay and retirement benefits for union members! Republican politicians while usually better fiscally with spending on tax payer money, tend to give LESS pay and retirement benefits to union workers.

So naturally, unions want politicians that are willing to give better financial benefits to their members. Hence union elected officers always vote to endorse democrats and the vicious cycle continues.

Sadly, it’s the American way.

But police unions have no real JUICE. They are forbidden to strike, unlike teachers and nurses can in the public sector. But politicians LOVE public safety endorsements and therefore usually “reward” these unions with promises and fulfillment of higher financial benefits.

You don’t get it. LEO union leaders don’t care about the “truth.” It’s about pay, benefits and retirement. Politicians have promised these benefits for over a century and unions are fed by money.

It sucks but that’s how it works unfortunately.

Of course I’m a recipient of LE union operations because they offer legal protection for us doing our jobs. But I too hate the fact that my association endorses Dems 99% of the time. Also, 99% of all elected union officers that vote republican on their ballots at home, still endorse and donate UNION money to democrat PAC’s.

...and that’s politics.

So what you are saying is that the California law enforcement community is KNOWINGLY LETTING their union leadership sell the 2nd amendment, public safety and solvency of the state and its future down the river for personal greed...

I don't know who is worse, the democrats running the state or the people who know better but are being PAID to turn a blind eye. Kinda makes me think that when they order you all to confiscate the guns and arrest all the citizens defending their rights ..everyone WILL show up for work to protect those pensions!

Kinda makes me think of just one word...starts with a .....

Former OCSD Hutchens is a pro 2A. I think the current OCSD Barnes is still a pro 2A. The OCSA may have a powerful affect on the OCSD decisions. OC politicians are mostly liberals now, so this doesn't surprise me.

You really think this is an appropriate post...here in the LEO forum.

Your here for real dialogue right, or just to get your rocks off by telling off those LEO’s that you obviously despise.

Oh I know, you don’t hate LEO’s you have lots of friends who are LEO. With friends like you...

Unions didn’t turn OC blue... voters did. Voters sold out this state. Getting mad at the cops can’t change that.

Sorry the Leo unions / associations have been helping all along ... in. A big way. As I said.. and my point of discussion ..If the rank and file all support the Second Amendment, if th drank and file all support keeping criminals in jail, if the rank and file support our borders, if the rank and file all support law and order, how can the majority rank and file who support all the above let THIER unions take the political positions the unions take in the name of the rank and file?

I'm just trying to understand...and wondering why the rank and file won't wrest control of its unions /associations form the pro democrat bosses and turn this unions political activity into reflections of the rank and file political values. We need you all in the fight for California with us not against us.

Sorry buddy, but today’s rank and file new cops aren’t into guns and the 2A like they were 30-40 years ago. It’s staggering how many in the profession just don’t care about guns.....politics.....voting etc....

But your problem primarily shouldn’t be against cops and cop associations (because technically, they are NOT unions, even though we’ve been referencing them as such). Complaining about this topic is really just “white-noise.”

Instead, why don’t you ask your friends and relatives if they even bothered to vote in the last general election. How about harping on your co workers for being complacent at the poles? Do you pester them for not voting on pro 2A issues? The fact is, the majority of citizens all around you and me, don’t vote. Those that do, primarily vote libtard in this state.

Why don’t you complain about this problem with your coworkers and relatives, then see where it gets you? I think blaming police associations and their sworn personnel about you losing your gun rights, just makes an easy target to complain about ...this week.

Yup.. LE is no longer a calling.. just a civil service job. We are becoming more and more like europe every day!

I already do all this in addition to contributing to NRA/ CRPA/ Second Amendment Foundation, Republican party, and anyone running against Pelosi and Schumer. I have walked more precincts and stuffed more envelops and manned more phone banks than I care to remember in my younger, more economically challenged days as well.

Its about more than gun rights now. Sorry, Those LE endorsements give all the liberal anti public safety, easy on criminals, pro liberal judges and sanctuary state democrats political cover at election time so they can stay in office and destroy both public and officer safety. Many of the officers attacked and killed in the last year or so were attacked or murdered by criminals and illegal immigrants who should have still been in jail or not in the country.

The union bosses are very consistent in pushing members to "vote for your paycheck". It works on younger members but older members are starting to reconsider. They are seeing that whatever gains the have on their checks end up going out in taxes, many time more than that raise. There is a Facebook movement, IAFF union members for Trump. This came about after IAFF President threw the internationals support behind Biden and has 23,000 members in 3 weeks. I see quite a few from my local, 1014 Firefighters. They are genuinely concerned about open borders, intolerance of opposing views and beliefs, medicare for all, declining schools, late term abortions and the whole democrat agenda. There are a lot of union members nationwide really concerned about the moral agenda of the dems and see a less bright future for their kids and grand kids. In some states the PACS are a separate fund and deductions from their paychecks and many of them are opting out of the PACs. I think this movement will open some eyes and reign in the international.

This is the truth of the matter, but OP has to blame someone for his blue county.

Cops are easy targets always are, maybe if he wasn’t so condescending and accusatory with his post more LEO would discuss this issue with him.

As it is it just reads like another hit piece not really worthy of anybody’s time.

I have said my peace. I would just encourage every patriotic LEO to think long and hard about what is being done in YOUR names by YOUR union bosses and ask you to consider taking back your unions by making them accountable to you the union members/ voters. Supporting the politicians you would never vote for, with YOUR money and YOUR reputation should be an affront to you all. The damage to the state being done by the politicians you bosses are in bed with is a travesty of epic proportions that soon may never be undone.

If the people hear about the damage being done to their safety and well being by the democrats in this state from the people they entrust that safety to, it would have a significant impact at the polls... and we all know that.Right now the only story getting out at election time is that democrats are supported by Law Enforcement and the electorate assume that means that democrats are proponents of sound public safety policy. THEY ARE NOT, haven't been for over 50 years and never will be.

Union members can strike and get results.

Big difference there son

I’m glad you know how to use a dictionary. Now Look up “discernment skills.”

Completely FALSE.

Recently In Cali, the moronic citizens voted in democrat politicians and/or propositions that:

-Decriminalized 99% of all felonies for drugs use and possession.
-Eliminated parole as we once knew it.
-Decriminalized petty theft laws as we knew it.
-Enacted a new murder law provision, granting 800 convicted murderers in this state new lighter sentences for release into YOUR neighborhood.
-Enacted a new law allowing all murder defendants now the right to the psych doctor of THEIR choice to testify in court as experts on behalf of their defense; while forbidding District Attorney’s the right to counter the claims of the defendants “doctor” in court, with a State’s witness psych doctor.
-Released THOUSANDS of convicted FELONS from state prisons.
-Took away more of our gun rights
-Took away more of our ammo acquisition abilities
-Give us more tax increases about every 6 months
-Made our state a sanctuary state
-Are trying to pass a law in SCramento as we speak, making it a crime for police to shoot a dangerous felon outside of what the SCOTUS already ruled upon decades ago regarding the “ reasonableness” clause of deadly force.
- AND TOOK AWAY OUR STRAWS! (That did it for me!)

I could go on and on and on,but you get my point.

So believing that the lazy and complacent majority of citizens of this state actually give a ***t about the concern you bring up, is just a pipe dream. The citizens didn’t give a darn about the issues I just pointed out and they’re certainly not going to give a rat’s-behind at the polls as you claim.

Nothing shocks people anymore, except bashing the police. If allowing or even talking about letting doctors “lawfully” kill a fully delivered POST-birth baby in some states doesn’t shock the conscious, nothing will. Don’t think that practice isn’t just around the corner from California, because it is.

About the only thing MOST people in this state care about anymore are the Kardashians, and Ellen “Degenerate” on TV. The majority of voters in Cali now never seem to say “no” to a tax they didn’t like.

The majority just love to vote “yes” to new taxes that make them feel good because the title of the proposition had the words “clean air, drinking water, safe children.... BOND act.. blah blah bla.”

In conclusion, there is NO “significant impact” that’s ever going to happen at the polls in California, that certainly protect what’s ethically and morally “right”

FYI

The actual reason that cops and firemen can't strike. Has nothing what so ever to do with what they choose to call their Union/Assoc/Guild/Federation, etc.

It's all about PERB, the MMB Act, and a Ca Supreme Court case that found.

Quote:
In a nutshell, the court confirmed yet again that public employees have the right to strike. However, the court also noted that there is a countervailing public interest that may outweigh that right in cases where the public welfare is at issue. Therefore, while state law “allows public employees to go on strike to enforce their collective bargaining demands” they cannot do so if the employees “perform jobs that are essential to public welfare.”
Case finding here:

http://www.slotelaw.com/sites/defaul...0strike%29.pdf

And some even write it into their "By-Laws" to avoid any confusion on members parts.

Cops and firemen, knowing they can't strike doesn't change an Assoc. into a Non Union.

Duly Noted that [2] got edited to include the previously noninclusive LE. And "junior" got changed to "son" in [3].

I made it to your very first sentence (barely). Then I glanced down and saw that you typed way too much for me to read. Shorten it up, get to the point and resend it. Thanks.

Wasn't it you that mentioned "discernment skills"? Yeah it was.

You know that reluctance to read rebuttals, that accurately refute your inaccurate claims. Doesn't make them go away. Right.

You're not kidding anyone. You read it, all of it. And you now know more than you did. Before you claimed not reading it.

You're Welcome.

Unions and Associations endorse the candidate that will benefit their Union or Association and its members. Pretty logical business plan even if I don't agree with it.

Many of these same Unions and Associations promote Bills and Propositions for the same reasons.

Anyone remember fire and police Unions and Associations fighting to keep the new higher gas tax? Those groups believed that tax would benefit their members.

In politics you are at the table or on it being served as an entrée.

Ok you win, where should I stand with you. In line at Costco, maybe the DMV. Sorry I wasn’t there with you when you registered all your rifles with the DOJ, my bad. But to be fair you weren’t standing with me either.

Yup and the public safety lobby as been helping to serve up our 2nd amendment rights and the public safety of citizens here in California as an entree to the liberal democrats for far too long.
