You hammer Mayor Sanders pretty good, but ...Steve,<br /><br />You hammer Mayor Sanders pretty good, but you’ve not addressed the failings of Chief Lansdowne. Yes, he has failed us. Where is our 100% staffing he promised? Where are all the pay increases he promised? He speaks with a forked tongue. Under his regime, we have experienced a major loss in personnel, pay and benefits. He is a liar.<br /><br />Now I have to watch News 10 to see what his upcoming plans for our department are. He doesn’t have the balls to sit down with the POA or employees to discuss our future. However, he is not shy about putting us on front street with the media.<br /><br />I find it disgusting that he discusses our future with the media, but not directly with us. What a spineless SOB. He needs to go. We officers have no respect for him as a man or as a leader. I do not feel he is a man of integrity or honor. His allegiance is to the Mayor, and not to the women and men of the San Diego Police Department. How dare he discuss issues with the media without first discussing them with us.<br /><br />With “everything on the table” we need a Chief of Police who is a leader to stand up for us. A leader who is not afraid to publically defend us. To let the public know that we can no longer do more with less. A leader who will not misrepresent its members by playing a game of smoke and mirrors by shifting personnel around in order to give the appearance of a fully staffed department. We need a leader who cares about morale and the welfare if the employees. We have none of this in Lansdowne. Just animated lip service from him.Chief Let-Us-Downenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1231162963364357109.post-21346118995121241782009-10-09T20:33:12.839-07:002009-10-09T20:33:12.839-07:00The crime in our city to the South, Tijuana, is ex...The crime in our city to the South, Tijuana, is experiencing numerous cops getting killed every week by the drug trade. The so called business/rich people, "targets", are afraid of Tijuana and live north of the border. We will soon have more killings and kidnappings on this side of the border and all hell will break loose.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1231162963364357109.post-16202031377106048132009-10-08T18:36:44.326-07:002009-10-08T18:36:44.326-07:00If the PD has to take a hit of 24% we might as wel...If the PD has to take a hit of 24% we might as well call for mutual aid because we will not have enough to do our job.

Would not change the fact he is a two faced liar who has no credibility with cops or those people who pay attention. 24% reduction in any way shape or form & we might as well hire these TJ officers being trained.

I suspect he's lying to save his ample ass for his next act as an executive. <br />Yes it's true, DeMaio, a.k.a. the little rube has his own agenda and that's where the problem lie. His agenda has nothing to do with keeping you and your family safe.Just Wonderinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01410710576875070891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1231162963364357109.post-89540466589188914372009-10-08T07:27:38.227-07:002009-10-08T07:27:38.227-07:00What new numbers at Northeastern?

Last time we had staffing problems, all the administration did was have crime analysis reduce or enlarge the beat boundaries and voilà minimum staffing was met.<br /><br />Sadly this is just a game played by those who are NOT in the field. They never face the day-in and day-out problems. A game where appearances mean more than your life. A game where an officer's death will used as political capital. It sickens me to learn that your Chief, your Mayor, your councilmember are so callous, so dishonest. And PLEASE DON'T TELL ME that when lansdowne put his uniform on and goes out to play cop, it means anything other than another PR opportunity for HIMSELF. Besides with the number of police cars he's crashed since coming here, and the cover-ups that followed we can't afford much more of his driving.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1231162963364357109.post-66640672276575069612009-10-08T05:45:22.945-07:002009-10-08T05:45:22.945-07:00I cannot remember the last time we met minimum sta...I cannot remember the last time we met minimum staffing here at Northeastern. Even if you use the new numbers that are an absolute joke we don't have enough police officers to do the job safely. I don't do any proactive police work. There is no time, no cover, no one with enough experience to help and for what? I answer the radio and write an occasional ticket. You are right on here Steve. Someone is going to get killed out here. Shame on Sanders, this city and lansdowne. <br /><br />Why is the department spending all this money for the sergeant and lieutenant tests? What a complete waste of time and money.POII for lifenoreply@blogger.com
