While Democrats Demolish Policing, Sensible Cities Get Some Top Notch Officers

"Liberal" governments delight in police bashing (the politicians in those cites have private body guards). Members of Congress are in a sprint to enact police reform.  Everywhere the smell of the blood of police is in the air.  Cops are like all humans -- they don't like being targets of prejudice and hate.  

Its no surprise alert governments are taking this  opportunity to pick up a few highly qualified cops.
Here's what one eastern Washington government is doing about it.



Spokane County Sheriff's Office has launched a series of billboards in Portland, Seattle, and Denver that advertise a hefty bonus for sufficiently experienced officers.

“We put up billboards in Portland as close to the police precincts as we could get, saying ’15 thousand dollar signing bonus. We’re hiring 40 lateral deputies. We want you,'” said Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich.

It’s no accident that the cities he’s targeting are largely liberal and have had some of the largest protests calling for major overhauls to policing.

“Their leadership in those areas, either political or law enforcement, have not stood behind their law enforcement, have actually gone out and talked about defunding and all that stuff,” said Knezovich.

Knezovich says it’s usually hard to convince people to leave well-paying jobs in big cities, but he believes the current political atmosphere creates a unique opportunity to poach top talent.

“Would you work for a place that didn’t like you, that didn’t respect you? Would you stay there?” he said. “And they’re not. They’re leaving. And we want to get the best of the best from them.”  (Republican Daily)
