Familiar Trend

California has several ballot proposals this election relating to Law Enforcement, including Props 6 & 9.  Prop  9 is a victims rights measure that gives victims rights to testify at sentencing and parole hearings, as well as preferred creditor status for restitution.  Prop 6 is a law enforcement measure with funds to help cops target drugs and gangs.  Both seem to be positive on the surface if one wants to support our boys in blue and be tough on crime. 

 

That said, I am still deciding how I will vote , but one thing I notice is that both have some unusual opposition:

 

The officially-filed committee opposing Proposition 6 is known as No on Propositions 6 & 9, Communities for Safe Neighborhoods and Fiscal Responsibility.

Notable members of the opposition coalition include the California Democratic Party, the California Professional Firefighters, the California Labor Federation, the California Teachers Association, California National Organization for Women, .^[21]

Seems like the Firefighters and Teachers unions don't want the cops to get a bigger slice of  the pie.  And the Democrats and Feminazis are right on board.   I've made up my mind how I'll vote now.

 

[SIde note; The name of the opposition committes is getting ridiculous.  "Communites for Safe Neighborhoods" is a group that opposes additioonal funding for street crime enforcment and victim rights?]
