LET:
ROBBINS, IL – Police officers in the village of Robbins will be returning to work following numerous call outs by officers in protest over working conditions with the police department.
Since it is illegal for police officers to go on a strike, the officers instead staged a walkout in an effort to have their grievances addressed.
Earlier in October, the Village of Robbins Police Department experienced a litany of call outs from police officers. Reportedly, out of the 14 police officers employed with the department, as many as 10 were not showing up for their assigned shifts.
The issues sparking the walkout pertained to officers feeling as though they were underpaid, lacking the proper resources to do their job, and overworked.
Detective Commander Hurman Mathus explained the shared sentiments from the officers who participated in the walkout, saying that the village can’t expect officers to “give their all” and in turn ignore the needs of those same officers: more
“…officers feeling as though they were underpaid…”
Officer, I am not interested in how you FEEL. If you have CONCLUDED that you are underpaid, kindly please explain why you THINK so.
They should not complain, look how little human lab rats are getting paid for their deadly work.
Uncle Al, Long, long ago in a town far, far away, I had a girlfriend who used her ‘feelings’ when discussing her ‘convictions.’
I finally recited to her the famous philosophical line: “Emotions are not tools of cognition.”*
And that ended the relationship. Turns out she was a deeply quiet Liberal. (But God, was she cute. We are so often fooled in our youth!)
(* If anyone doesn’t know the origin of this, Duck-Duck-Go it.)
I know for a fact that they would take the wheel and tires off of the Fire Apparatus and mount them on the garbage trucks on garbage day. 1 Effed up Village.
I don’t really understand their problem.
Most of them are Demoncrats and that’s what they voted for.
Until the idiot people of Illinois quit voting Demoncrat and RINO nothing will change
