Wow, great letter.
I hope this doesn't violate the sandbar posting rules, but thought all should get a chance to read this. (didn't think it would get much time in the political forum).
To:
Mr. Gregg Passama ("COPS")
President California Organization of Police & Sheriffs
430 N. Vineyard #310
Ontario, California 91764
Mr. Passama,
I am a retired Los Angeles Policeman. I was a "cop" who
worked, in uniform, on the streets of Los Angeles for over
27 years.
Like the vast majority of those in law enforcement, I am a
conservative. During my 27 years, I've never met a cop,
detective or federal agent who supported Jerry Brown. In
fact, he was despised.
THE DECISION OF YOUR ORGANIZATION TO
ENDORSE JERRY BROWN SICKENS ME.
Why, YOU might ask?
Because...
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown was elected Governor.
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown appointed Rose Bird to
the California Supreme Court.
I was a policeman when Rose Bird reversed 100% of the 58
death penalty cases.
I was a policeman when Rose Bird used her power to reverse
or overturn 61 death penalty convictions (including cop killers).
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown denied knowing Rose
Bird's philosophy on the death penalty. He said he NEVER
talked with her about it. You believe that?
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown refused to sign the
"Victim's Bill Of Rights".
I was a policeman when 29 police officers were shot and killed
while in the line of duty in '73-'74.
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown vetoed AB 3272, which
would have required the bullet proof vest be made available to
police officers and sheriffs throughout the state.
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown refused to invoke a state
statute that would allow him (the governor) to revoke the parole
of Jimmy Smith (The Onion Field incident).
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown signed a law to do away
with the valuable "Indeterminate Sentencing Law".
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown spoke out against the
execution of William Bonin (found guilty of murdering 14 teen-
agers and admitted to killing 21).
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown supported the amazing
INMATES Bill of Rights.
I was policeman when Jerry Brown said... "William Bonin was
sent to his death, MURDERED by the state, by our
representatives."
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown said he would NEVER
support the death penalty.
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown said, "There's nothing
wrong with being an anarchist."
*Speaking to the International Transportation Association
6-10-95).
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown said, "The U.S. incarcera-
tion BINGE is not tied to crime. It's a strategy to control the
surplus population in a capitalist system that is breaking down."
*Wall Street Journal 8-10-99
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown said, "Putting more felons
in jail is an "old fix" that has been tried by every governor."
*Fresno Bee 5-6-94.
I was a policeman when Jerry Brown used his political power to
impose his leftist ideology to ruin the state of California. His
policies created havoc on the streets and in the court system.
By the way, then Attorney General George Deukmejian wrote
the "Use A Gun Go To Prison" legislation. Politically, Brown
had no choice but to sign it.
I don't know your motivation for this endorsement, but as far
as I'm concerned, you truly should be ashamed of yourselves.
Randy Walker
LAPD Retired
ps: Last night a Sacramento County Sheriff was shot and killed
by some murderous loser. Give Jerry Brown a call and ask him
if he favors executing the worthless son-of-a-bitch who did it?
Wow, great letter.
I'd vote for Jerry Brown.
Couldn't agree more.
It is sickening and a bit embarrassing when you hear the COPS commercials and other L.E. Organizations endorsing this loser.

That's politics. It's not "What have you done?", but more "What will you give us?"
I can't believe JB is still around
oh well one more thing I don't miss about Taxifornia
HEY Ted,

CJG
:skull:
Just so there is no confusion, he is running for Attorney general..... :rollside:
I am governor jerry brown
My aura smiles
And never frowns
Soon I will be president
Carter power will soon go away
I will be fhrer one day
I will command all of you
Your kids will meditate in school
California über alles
über alles california
Zen fascists will control you
100% natural
You will jog for the master race
And always wear the happy face
Close your eyes, cant happen here
Big bro on white horse is near
The hippies wont come back you say
Mellow out or you will pay
California über alles
über alles california
Now it is 1984
Knock knock at your front door
Its the suede/denim secret police
They have come for your uncool niece
Come quietly to the camp
Youd look nice as a drawstring lamp
Dont you worry, its only a shower
For your clothes heres a pretty flower
Die on organic poison gas
Serpents eggs already hatched
You will croak, you little clown
When you mess with president brown
California über alles
über alles california
That is why "C.O.P.S." has so few supporters, tobad the public does not know this.
