Back when I founded and served as president of the Greenville Police Patrolman's Union, we we're courted by CLEAT and the National Association of Police Organizations (NAPO). We went with NAPO because of the extreme "socialist" leanings of CLEAT.

I organized GPPA Local 789 because we had major problems with a chief at the time who seemed to care more about the BGs than his officers. We disbanded the union the day he left employment with the city.

My dad always said three things were ruining this country, plastic, aluminum, and unions (plastic and aluminum have made a lot of progess to date...). He was probably rolling over in his grave the whole time, but my bros and I needed the legal protection and political avenues at the time, just to fight the unfair disciplinary actions every time someone complained the handcuffs were too tight.
