No; a work action is when the police do not respond to calls. Bratton is being obtuse here. He doesn’t understand? He will come to understand. All at once, it’s a work action. It’s a lack of respect action. No, wait, it’s a political action. By saying it is all three of those, he is proving he’s not in command. If he were on top of it, he would ignore it. As is, he’s committing career suicide aligning himself with Blasio. Which is really a tragedy because he’s an enormously competent police chief.
What would be a “work action” is when the police do not respond to calls. And that’s coming.
I have to wonder what Diblasio has on Bratton. Hmm. Must be good.
Bratton appeared positively demented at the presser, DiBlasio was busy channeling Ortega, Chavez and Che Guevara.
The message they were sending to the cops is that they better not turn their backs again.
They are playing with fire.
