The deputy commissioner can be a police officer of any rank education or qualifications. So basically is brown wants to appoint his own people who where unable to qualify under the existing guidelines. this is just what we need more unqualified people running the city.
(Wonder if its too late to apply for the Chauffeur's position?)
Yup, the founding fathers left us with a pretty good basis for a fair government... then the career politicians came along and screwed it up.
I'm pretty much sick of this as BuffaloJoe is... and I'm thinking about bugging out myself sometime soon. The perfect thing would be to win the lottery and go buy myself a private island just outside US waters.
However, I'm beginning to think that's what the politicians want... they want to run everyone but the rich and politically elite out of NY state... then scarf-up all the property cheap and turn it into either a toxic waste dump for massive profit... or a vast retirement community for the weathy and connected.
Just my suspicions.
