RUSH: Bud in Chicago. Great to have you, sir. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thank you. Hey, this NRA thing doesn\u2019t make sense to me, either. And if we need to go looking for organizations to blame, I\u2019m almost thinking we should be looking at the unions that protect these officers. My understanding, this guy, his greatest punishment is he\u2019s gonna retire, gonna collect a pension for the rest of his life and that\u2019s the level of accountability he\u2019s gonna have for allowing these individuals, these poor kids to be shot and killed. And I just think that if you want to really look at organizations, look at organizations that perpetuate and create a safe environment for these guys to operate, because it doesn\u2019t make any sense to me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. You raise an interesting point here about government employees. They are rarely fired, that we know about, anyway, in circumstances like this. And rarely held accountable. And they are aided and assisted in hanging on long enough to get either all or a portion of their pension. But it\u2019s something that appears to me to be specific to government employees, when you bring it up.<\/p>\n

You reminded me of something else that\u2019s in my Stack here. David Clarke, Sheriff David Clarke has a great piece<\/a>. Maybe it\u2019s liberals threaten fiscal crisis if unions lose the SCOTUS case. We talked about this in the Morning Update today. This is all things I want to get to today as the program unfolds. PROMISE Program supplements as well. Anyway, I\u2019ll think of what it is that your comment spurred in my famous little gray cells here. ‘Cause it\u2019s really right on the money. It may even be a sound bite that I saw here that I\u2019m trying to find.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s about the whole lack of accountability and the effort now to cover up or to — not cover up, but to misdirect people\u2019s attention away from what really went on and continue to blame things that have nothing to do with it and people. But you\u2019re right about the sheriff and the deputy here seeking their pension. They\u2019re given a place to live, so they have a trailer where they live next to the school. That\u2019s provided at no cost to them.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s maddening because at every level of this there was some kind of government failure. And yet, every time it happens, people turn right back to the government demanding the government fix what they didn\u2019t do right in the first place. And that, by the way, is how government grows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
