    Cops don’t have “better unions,” they have criminal unions. They’re not like other unions — much more powerful, protective of active criminals long as they have a badge — and deserve no support, no matter how pro-union anyone might be.

    The root problem: Police are nearly worshipped in American society, to the point that not giving them everything they ask for is considered “weak on crime,” and can cost the Mayor his/her job.

    Pretending they’re a union like other unions makes the problem worse.
