Residents air frustrations
Interesting comment string on Melissa Pamer's story about frustrations over the Monrovia Police Officers Association's recent negoiating tactics.
Here's one example of the comments:
The real story here is the comments that have emmenated from Councilman Adams' escrow business:
- Monrovia police officers are lazy
- They're underworked security guards, worth about $15/hour
- They harrass people and write bogus tickets
- They use their guns to get money from people
-The last MPD officer to be injured on the job was hurt because he ate too many donuts at once.(Actually, Sergeant Verna was shot in the face on March 30).
Councilman Adams has not disassociated himself from the comments, nor decried them. Because, the bottom line is, Adams, like much of the council, fundamentally disrespects the work of police officers.
