Guinn Bill (another Give away)

Call the Quinn Bill what is is: A disgrace. A liberal democratic Massachusetts freaken give-away for votes. It is a joke to see the schools these degrees where granted from. Schools saw this as a wind-fall, and ii is! the quinn Bill is for the police what step raises and years on the job are for teachers. It is a joke! The cop and teachers don't care we know it for what it is. They laugh all the way to the bank. A cop in braintree is nothing more than a glorified highway department worker. Both on the public dole. Most could not make it in the private sector.

By The judge

The Answer Is...

Boston cops, such as I see the Quinn Bill for suburbs, like Braintree, as a joke. We resent it. What I do in Town and these jokers do is totally different. Braintree and other suburban cops are a fraud compared to city duty. i live in Braintree too, so I know, I am disgusted Braintree cops are compensated to the extent they are compared to what we do in Boston.
