A battle pitting the mayor of Chicago and the superintendent of the police department against some officers defying a vaccine mandate for all city employees has ended up in court where the police union is asking a judge for a temporary restraining order.

A court hearing over the union's request for a temporary restraining order was delayed Wednesday, but that did little to ease tensions over the city's attempt to get all police officers vaccinated.

Police Superintendent David Brown said compliance with the COVID-19 shot mandate by officers and civilian employees of his agency went up to 67% on Tuesday from 64% a day earlier.

"I will say and do anything to save an officer's life," Brown said during a news conference on Tuesday. "If it takes going through a counseling session, going to a no-pay status, going to internal affairs or a direct order, if that's what it takes, I'm willing to do it."

4. I'm becoming less favorable to unions these days.

It’s not just the police that are trying to block these mandates. Im opposed to and will no longer be supportive of any union trying to fight vaccine mandates.

6. Teachers union in nyc whined.

7. In general I support Unions

With the exception of police unions. They seem to promote all the wrong attitudes and behaviors by the most criminal of their members. Their anti-vax stance is just the icing on the cake.
