In an arbitrator’s award to be unsealed today, Boston’s rank-and-file cops stand to get a nearly 25 percent pay hike
Recently, in your July 6th issue, the Phoenix made a front-page attack against my union’s newspaper, Pax Centurion (the publication of the Boston Police Patrolmen’s Association), accusing us of baseless, false and scurrilous charges of racism, sexism, and homophobia (“Sh*t Boston Cops Say”).
James Carnell, Boston Police Officer and Editor of The Pax Centurion wrote a letter to the editors of The boston Phoenix and specifically, writer Chris Faraone and even mentioned lil’ ole me, Jamarhl Crawford.
I’m glad that Occupy Boston, advertisers and some media are now concerned. However, I find it ironic and indicative of white privilege that there’s a hullabaloo now that some white people from Occupy Boston are offended. In years past, Carnell and also Boston Police Patrolmen’s Association President Thomas “Tom” Nee have espoused views offensive to African-Americans, Africans, Latinos, Muslims, Homosexuals, Women, Immigrants… you get the picture.
