Bulletin: NYPD can not get enough applicants to give a test for police officer. Do you wonder why?
News Item: Port Authority P.D. academy graduates 72 new police officers. 67 are former NYPD cops!
News Item: Suffolk County P.D. hires 90 new cops. 70 are former members of the NYPD.
News Item: new NYFD class of 150; over half are NYPD.
Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, do you realize that you have a problem? Are you clueless? In order to conform to federal truth in advertising laws, perhaps the new NYPD recruitment posters should read, as follows:
Earn the lowest pay, for the most dangerous police work of any police department in the tri-state area.
Be subject to petty, picayune disciplinary action, with a trial room that has a near 100% conviction rate.
Have criminals make dozens of civilian complaints against you, then have the complaints investigated by cop-hating, Democratic club hacks.¹
Become a "great white defendant" for a publicity seeking, grand-standing district attorney; have your life ruined so the D.A. can parade you around to curry favor with criminal loving minorities.
Make a good faith mistake and you and your family can become financially destroyed by paying tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees.
You'll work with bosses who will stand behind you... way, w-a-a-a-y behind you!!!
Be a good, active, honest cop and arrest criminals. Make the City safe for the law abiding public. While doing so, rack up many civilian complaints so when you get involved in a controversial case, the public can read the New York Post's story on how many civilian complaints you have (and make it read like you were guilty of every one of them!)
Watch you gutless "leaders" cower and kow-tow to political pressure groups every time; it's easier to sell out their men than try to grow a pair of balls.
Work for a bunch of ball-less eunuchs (i.e. Members of the department above the rank of Lieutenant) who are more worried about their next promotion than standing up tall and backing up their men.
Be part of a thoroughly demoralized army. Remember the motto of the new NYPD: "Don't get involved!"
If you become stupid enough to actually "get involved" and respond to a dangerous call, make sure you have another job lined up, real soon. A rich father-in-law would help!
Your bosses will give you a summons quota and make you give out chicken-crap, marginal tickets to the public. Watch your department's "experts" wonder why there are so many civilian complaints arising from these encounters.
Celebrate diversity!! The guy who burglarized your house just last year may have a locker next to you tomorrow.
Start out with a salary lower than a coffee-jerk's pay at Starbucks.
Take a bullet for millions of liberal, unappreciative citizens who hate you. (Add also, Democratic party officials).
Be villified by phony ministers who command millions of dollars of government poverty money to aid and assist criminals.
Go through six months of training, then get so disgusted that you quit and join another police department or the NYFD. Look back and watch your "leaders" scratch their heads searching for reasons for this exodus.
Be proud of your job! Stare at your silver shield and remember what it stands for, as you whip out your food stamps at the local A&P.
Enjoy the enhanced social life of an NYPD member. You will attend thousands of "going away" parties for all of the young men and women leaving the job in droves every year.
Watch with pride as your squad sergeant leaves to become a Suffolk County cop or a member of the NYFD. Remember, this type of vacancy opens up promotion slots quickly.
There are a lot of people to blame for the above state of facts. Although somewhat humorous, the seriousness of the problem is not. We can start out with:
The Democratic party - a haven for cop-haters, liberals, socialists and the party of choice for criminals. If your family bread winner is a car thief, stick-up man, drug dealer or pickpocket you would want your local Democratic politician to constantly berate and discredit the cops.
Democratic party District Attorneys - Robert Johnson (Bronx), Robert Morgenthau (Manhattan) and Charles Hynes (Kings); all of the above have sandbagged and brought bogus prosecutions against cops. They do so to get minority votes and get the kudos and back slaps from their cop-hating Democratic club friends.
NYPD promotional system - as a bone thrown to William "Boss" Tweed, all police promotions above the rank of Lieutenant remained political, even after civil service reform. Do you wonder why? Control the upper ranks, and you control the cops. This produces cowardly, gutless leaders, utterly subservient to the will of the political leaders. It is a system that is more geared to producing "Bernard Fyfes" than "Bernard Montgomerys" in the top ranks!!!
Bogus reverends, like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, who control millions of dollars in poverty money. They use the money to keep stirring up controversy. Blacks are the majority of crime victims, but the race hustler's game is to blame the cops for the victims' plights, instead of the criminals. Normal people can not picket on a Tuesday afternoon; they have jobs. But the poverty pimps can round up hundreds of their lazy, parasitic constituents to picket City Hall, Police Plaza, etc.
The New York press, even the cop friendly New York Post, can whip up anti-police sentiment with constant slanted, biased reporting. The police can not get a fair shake. Why put up with this constant negative beating when you can get another job?
Criminal court judges - how many Republicans are there out of all of the judges in the NYC court system? You can count them on one hand (maybe one finger). Do you wonder why the Diallo cops could not get a fair trial in New York City? A Democratic judge who allowed anything but a guilty verdict would have his career destroyed!
Show this to all retired cops who still have some reverence and feeling for "The Job."
Ray Kelly, please call your office. You, and all New Yorkers have a problem.
