Police Union BOYCOTTS Obama Visit Over His Lack of Support for Cops
"Obama and his liberal ilk cannot stand those who serve in uniform, whether it be military, police, or firefighters, and will throw them under the bus whenever they get the chance — and yet still expect to be able to use them as campaign props to make them look tough on terrorism and crime. Unfortunately for Obama, cops in Boston aren’t having any more of his anti-police rhetoric, and decided to boycott his Labor Day speech.
Jerry Flynn, a Lowell cop on leave while serving as executive director of the New England Police Benevolent Association, said his organization’s executive board has chosen to boycott President Obama’s Labor Day breakfast address in Boston today to make a statement about violence against police:
“Our members are enraged at his lack of support of law enforcement. It’s clear that he has an agenda, and unfortunately the police are not part of his agenda.
Let’s face it, (there have been) eight people killed in a nine-day period, eight police officers, and his silence up until recently has been deafening. And the real sad part of this — and when I went to the White House in the first term with (Vice President) Joe Biden — he said to me that he would be the voice of law enforcement. Well, as much as I love and adore Joe, his voice has been silent as well. So it’s not an Obama problem, it’s an administration problem.
This is a horror show, this is an epidemic of lawless people trying to kill police officers for no apparent reasons. Case in point is the lieutenant who was pumping gas in Houston. Over 7,000 people were at that church, and where was he (Obama)? Why wasn’t he there instead of a unity breakfast?”
Referring to the looting and destruction in Ferguson, Mo., following the shooting of Michael Brown, Flynn continued:
“I mean, he had the opportunity to do things then and he didn’t, and all he’s done is escalated and allowed these people that are hellbent on causing problems to do so. We can’t continue to have people who have no intention to do anything but to be disruptive. These aren’t good citizens. These are thugs who go out and try to cause problems.
"Obama and his administration have been fanning the anti-police flames for over a year now, if not arguably longer, and all because they side with violent thug criminals over the men and women who risk their lives to protect and serve our communities. Did he really think he could treat police officers so disrespectfully without there being any consequences?"
