You may prefer Nora Davis but like all dinosaurs, they decamp once their welcome is finished. Out she goes and in goes a City Council the residents want; a RULE backed City Council. Democracy; it feels wonderful.<br />Now on to your big scoop; please provide evidence of the police being maltreated in any way and you'll see a Tattler story covering it. I have never seen any such poor treatment of our police as you allege but I really would like to see it so we can correct it. Please inform. Also, I'd like to see evidence the police are retaliating as you say they are. If proven, that would be grounds for termination; an abdication of their oaths. <br />Again, this is a blockbuster charge you are leveling at both the City Council and the Police Department. Please inform.

I would prefer to go back to the old days of Nora Davis and have a responsive Police force to protect us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394711926853801811.post-72957569212036180362016-12-26T20:51:25.795-08:002016-12-26T20:51:25.795-08:00The only "hit" was when the cops told us...The only "hit" was when the cops told us not to vote for the people we overwhelmingly preferred on our City Council.

Our police took a huge bet in the last election and lost (with the exception of John Bauters getting in). They're no doubt hoping now we forget they told us not to vote for Ally and Christian post election. Oh to have been a bug on the wall to watch the police come hats in hands to Ally and Christian hoping the two winners are not of a retaliatory state of mind. That would have been an entertaining video to put in the Tattler.Brian Donahuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12705682112476904502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394711926853801811.post-14689225021942523772016-12-24T15:56:54.012-08:002016-12-24T15:56:54.012-08:00The population in Emeryville has shifted dramatica...The population in Emeryville has shifted dramatically in the last few years. I see crowds of young, bright IT people, of all ethnicities, who, along with our less fortunate folks, are unlikely to place their bets in the direction of the Right. I don't think it matters much what public agency endorses what. I've noticed, in conversations, that Emeryville people are quite able to think for themselves.Joe Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15839353931810764397noreply@blogger.com
