PBA is desperate

Unregistered · 07-01-2020, 02:55 PM

Can you imagine how desperate PBA is that they send an entire squad of goofy looking honchos to sway us from doing what is right for ourselves.
Some of these bafoons don’t even look like they were ever cops trying to tell us what is good for ourselves. The gall to come here with a bunch of losers. At least bring us your sharpest and brightest people if you intend to
Impress us. Some of the clowns they brought here couldn’t even speak coherently.
Get out PBA and go represent sanitation workers because you have no idea how to represent cops.

If you guys are think of FOP beware!!! FOP has a $20,000 cap on legal coverage and will not supply an attorney to bargain your contract! FOP is more of a drinking club than a union.

Please post your source stating that the FOP legal defense has a $20k cap on an officer’s defense. Because that’s just plain and simple BS.

Click the link below and see for yourself! Page 2 $20,000 cap on Civil Lawsuits coverage. After you max out at $20,000 your required to go before the FOP board and beg for more money. Also, $500 cap on duty related traffic representation. The big problem with going before the FOP board for more money is if the board doesn't like you this week you get nothing! Favoritism at its finest!

This is simply more “misinformation.” There are no caps in our plan, and we definitely will spend whatever amount necessary to defend our brothers and sisters through legal, criminal and administrative defense.

The FOP Plan even offers an additional benefit of 5 hours of “free” legal coverage with an attorney for off-duty, non work related offenses a member may be arrested or charged with.

The $20,000 Brother Dave is possibly referring to is under a civil suit. If you are sued for a work-related action, your agency is obligated to provide you with an attorney to defend you, so there should be no concern. For instance, I was sued at work in Fort Lauderdale for work related arrests on a few occasions (as many officers are, esp these days). The City provided my legal/civil defense in every one of those suits and defended them successfully. However, as an enhancement, our Plan provides an additional protection wherein we will cover a member in the rare event your City denies providing an attorney for civil litigation. We cover up to $20,000 in court costs, etc (as our attorney fees are already covered). In the rare event court costs exceed $20,000, the State FOP Labor Council would approve the additional costs above $20k (so there is no “cap”).

Again, this is an additional “safety” benefit for you as your City is supposed to provide the legal coverage anyhow, and this serves as an added “fail-safe” to ensure your members will always be covered.

Just another example of how information is spun into misinformation, although I definitely appreciate the questions and hope this answers this one.

Please surf the LA sites for Dade and Broward and see what they think of their presidents.

1) The fat chubby guy comes from Broward.
2) The guy with the bad hair dye job is from Dade.

Honestly, These PBA cartoon characters must think we are idiots. They think by giving us trinkets and throwing Nick under the bus like a sacrificial lamb wins us over. Sure, some of us have had serious issues with Nick but he’s just a spike in the big wheel.
Ironically, the other spokes show up here, verbally elbow each other to get a word in edgewise and some made statements that I couldn’t decipher even with an unabridged dictionary or Pictionary for that matter.
Honestly, I would label them
The three stooges but there were more. 9 in believe. Can you imagine we are now worthy of 9 PBA big shots. It helps us understand the dire situation the PBA is really in. If this is their brightest and best, no wonder why FOP is taken over all across the state.
Keep your trinkets, incoherent statements and your general BS out of here.
Lastly, if they are willing to throw One of their own under the bus what do you think they will do to us? It won’t be pretty.
