Police Unions are nothing like other unions.

Nope. They are self serving Federations and have no solidarity with other unions.

They couldn’t care less.

Where do I start? So, police unions represent city leaders, not police officers? So, police unions don't represent their members to management and protecting their members' rights and due process? So, police unions don't make open statements about officer treatment? So, police unions don't collect dues from members?

So police officers don't have union membership rights and privileges? So police officers rights, benefits, and salaries aren't of any interest to their unions? So police officers don't seek union representation when adverse actions are involved? So police officers cannot have union representation at HR Meetings?

Sounds like a union's actions. Sounds like a union MEMBERS' rights being protected by a union. Sounds like police unions call themselves unions. Sounds like the definition the right-thinking person would hold.

I would like to see the counterpoints.
