Police union boss openly threatens critics

Sadly, no, I am not making that up.

Union head Joe Gamaldi actually said, "If you’re the ones out there spreading the rhetoric that police officers are the enemy, well just know we’ve all got your number now. We’re going to be keeping track on all of y’all, and we’re going to make sure to hold you accountable every time you stir the pot on our police officers."

"keeping track" and "holding people accountable" isn't much of a threat, or even a threat at all.

Yeah, sure...and it would be just TERRIBLE if your house were to burn down, right?

It's clearly a threat, if not to do actual harm, then at least to subject them to a harassing level of enforcement.

[Jarlaxle]

Of course...and explicitly intended as such.

[BoSoxGal]

He should be made to resign, he’s not fit to hold that office.

[Bicycle Bill]

He's just saying that with certain people the letter of the law, rather than the spirit of the law, may be enforced.  I don't see too much of a problem with that.  If someone wants to argue a ticket for doing, say, 60 mph in a 55 mph zone, well, that's what the courts are for.

And maybe toss some meth in the car for good measure.
