Abramson strikes out!

Wow, are you kidding? Really? ok lets analyze facts.

1 youve sat by and said nothing while "your side" calls me coward, knowing that I agreed to meet with you and that you were the one who called off the face to face.

2 I gave you my "name" with the expectation of anonymity, and then, the name I gave you is posted here.

Thats the personal grudge.

now, for every ONE time I have insulted "the people you work with" there have been 20 times that they chose to insult me, and you said nothing.

Why would you assume that just because I dont spell out other causes that I "fight" for here, that there arent any? I am active politically as well, but as I have said, in the appropriate place. I had nothing to do with the Thorntons post, so as hard as it is for you to accept, I am not the only one with an issue with the police. Along those lines however, I have never stated that I am anti police, and in fact, have told you specifically that I am a supporter of the police. Had you not cancelled the meeting you would have gotten some of the PRO ploice articles that I have written, even a couple published.

Why would you make the unfounded accusations that I nor anyone else would stop to help someone getting robbed? you know NOTHING about me, but seemingly, like the others, ease yourself by assuming I am a coward.

Of course I see the amount of people that speed, but there is ONE critical difference. It is only cops, or those with connections TO cops, who commit those infractions with the knowledge they will NOT get a ticket.

That "blanket of security" also includes the people who provide everything that those people have, because without truckers, they wouldnt need security, because they would have NOTHING to secure.

I dont need your pity, in fact, you have nothing that I need. you can sit here and excuse the actions of "your side" while damning me for my actions, but it only eases your conscience, it doesnt change reality.

Just because you want to excuse everything I have undeniably substantiated, doesnt make it any less real. Choosing not to stand up to those who give you a bad name doesnt do "your side" any good.

As far as my reference to "all cops" I clarified that to you as well. I know people that are great people, that are less than great cops. I have stated many times the difference between cops in general, and what passes for the representation of cops HERE on this forum.

Where were you when the person speaking as a cop talked about using ropes and trees to keep the west end in line?

Its obvious that you dislike me, and honestly, I could care less whether you attack me, and personally, see nothing that you can ridicule me about. I would have preferred you actually name a post I made that isnt justified.

As to taking flack, well, you dont have the market cornered on that one either. Tell you what, Ill trade positions with you, and then you can see what it is like to be in a strange city,driving a 75' vehicle, trying to find a place that noone who works there can give directions to, and when you get lost, or stuck, and cause a traffic jam because you have to back up a block, see what kind of flack you get then.

You wear a bullet proof vest at work, and for good reason. You are also armed, and for good reason. we are basically legally prevented from protecting ourselves with anything other than a steak knife, assuming we have groceries in our truck. See how well you sleep at night the next time you are in West Chester, PA, or Hyde Park, NYC, where thieves and hookers are banging on your door every few minutes to ask for a cig or money, when they are really trying to see if youre asleep so they can rob your truck. Come see what it is like to have a family that you see every 3-4 weeks for 2 days, ALL YEAR LONG.

Crude? I dont sit here and bash everyone who wears a uniform, I bash what you allow to represent you, and others that wear a badge.

I bash the completely false image you present to the public as an excuse for your "behavior" through the perks you grant yourselves. You can continue to deny it but its true, you are all at the point that you believe you are heroes SOLELY because of the job you do, and therefore justified in putting yourselves above all of society.

You want to excuse traffic violations as not being "criminal" but if they are so minor, then why enforce them at all? If it is so vital to society's safety, then why is it ok for your fellow cops to ignore them?

heres another thing that is crude, you allowing trash to speak for you, simply because you dont want to get labeled as being "on my side.

As for all of those who have sacrificed for the country and city I call home, heres my response, how about you try and think about all those who CLAIM to risk it all on a daily basis, and lumping themselves in with TRUE people who have EARNED the name hero. Hope you also have a good weekend.
