Back in the '90s they called wanting money.

I asked the Kelly Bundy clone who called, "Does your organization support the Brady Bill and 'assault weapon' ban?"

She replied, "We support the officers!"

I again asked, "Does the FOP support the Brady Bill and the "assault weapon" ban?"

She again replied, "We support the officers!"

I asked her again, finally causing her to break script.

Befuddled, she said that she didn't know. She then perked back up and said, "I can ask somebody!"

I said, "That would be good."

There follows a long pause.

A male voice comes on the line, "How can I help you?"

I ask again, "Does the FOP support the Brady Bill and 'assault weapon' ban?"

He asks me, "Are you in the NRA?"

I replied, "That's neither here nor there. You called ME, asking for money. I'm entitled to know how you're going to spend that money."

There's a pause and he replies, "The FOP supports the Brady Bill and 'assault weapon' ban."

I said, "See how easy that was? I'll never give ANY money to ANYBODY who supports gun control. I'll be telling everybody I know who feels likewise. Have a nice day."

Between that and the Chicago lodge's public statements on firearms and domestic violence, I will NEVER give the FOP a penny, and encourage everyone I know to do likewise.
