Socialism Gets Berned by Socialism

So 8 officers/fireman got $23,000 in overtime for a few hour event, where 6000 attended? $2500 should have covered it.

I guess turnabout is fair play in socialism vs socialism.


Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

A town of 8,000 has four police departments and fire departments?

Not likely.

If they do, they must tiny.

Some churches have more than 6,000 in attendance so $23k is crazy for 6,000 person short-term event.

They were mutually assisting from other departments outside the town... How can you be that dense that you don't know how this stuff works? You need a ton of security at an event like this so having a majority of all 8 departments there for crowd control and security isn't at all unreasonable...

It's not even remotely close to your church example.... Not too many people are gonna be there to shoot the pastor or disrupt things... With a political rally it's way different.

Don't forget Bernie was traveling with secret-service protection.

I just don't buy it cost $23,000 - a lot of padding going on there.

How much time was spent? How many people? What other costs were associated?

We don't know the breakdown but I guarantee it's not all overtime.

New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.
