Stockertown Police Decertify Union
Stockertown Borough has one Chief (John Soloe) and seven part-time officers. Pennyslvania's Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) only represents full-time police officers, so these part-timers had been relying on the Teamsters. But not anymore. According to the electronic sign in front of Stockertown's municipal building, the union there has recently been decertified.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Does this open the door to RoboCop to get fired more easily?
ReplyDeleteNo, this makes it more likely that Schwab will be hired as an anti-union FT cop in Stockertown.

ReplyDelete"Chief" Soloe is a curious title. Rumor is that he doesn't respond in a timely manner to citizen complaints - timely meaning a week or more sometimes. Possibly better fit as a zoning officer, which he does in 3 or more towns.
ReplyDeleteSchwab will never be hired full time anywhere!!!!! That you can count on! As soon as the slate belt regional officially forms, they will be taking over stockertown. Move on Schwab...
