I think it was smart to exclude all cops, not so much ‘firefighters’ but that’s another day.

Tuesday here in Michigan is an unknown with the signing of the RTW bill along with the potential for violence from the left.

And that stinkin’ puke from Kenya will be here tomorrow to stir and stoke the racist class warfare pot, and if there is bloodshed in Lansing come Tuesday hope it falls in the hands of Barry Soetero.

The Michigan State Police (union) are charged with protecting the Capitol. They will.

But the real action to watch is what the Lansing cops will do...if the unionists get ugly.

I pray for peace and civility.

There is already violence in Saline with the second assault in a week involving unions. The stories have been pretty vague but a friend in the area tells me its because of tension between union members who support RTW and members who don't.

“I think it was smart to exclude all cops, not so much ‘firefighters’ but that’s another day.”

Maybe so, so as not to provoke a confrontation with these two union groups right now. But as I mentioned to cripplecreek yesterday, these two groups collectively eat up something on the order of 75% or more of any city’s budget, or at least that’s how it is here in California. Just take a look at the numbers for the cities (i.e. Stockton and San Bernardino) here that are in bankruptcy and you will see this is the case. Vallejo just came out of bankruptcy and didn’t really resolve their issues with the cops and the firefighters, and I am guessing that they will have to go bust another time because their numbers are not sustainable over the long-term. And with the economy in the dumper they are not getting the tax revenues that they expected and upon which their bankruptcy was predicated.
