                        • First of all, the fact the police are a union is so far down on the list of their problems

                          • Police are state agents to act against the citizens and for the state.
                          • Teachers have no such enforcement role.
                          • Police benefits and pay are astronomically better than teacher benefits and pay.
                          • Wan Dalters’ example is how the teachers union fights against charter schools
                            • This would be like police fighting against privatized security forces,,,, which, like would definitely NOT be an abuse of their union power and in the public interest.
