Not FOP at all. I also haven’t lied once.
To which lie are you referring? That she called the commander? That’s not a lie, and she has admitted it wasn’t a good call. That should have ended this.
I have seen zero posters on this thread saying it was appropriate to call the 3D commander and multiple saying it wasn't (as I emphasized in another post above) even if they generally sympathize with Mink or think the FOP is being dishones. You know this yet you continue to create this straw man of people who think this was appropriate. You are not honest.
Not that poster but the FOP does not really represent all sworn officers. They may all pay dues, but that doesn't mean they even like the FOP.

There’s already a Police Accountability Board and a Reimagining Public Safety Task Force, both of which are deeply critical of the department. There have also been some very loud Council voices over the past couple years.
It’s harder to find supportive voices than critical ones.

My Hyundai needs a new tire, should I take it to Costco auto or MCPD?
Or you can call AAA, which is what Kristin Mink did before she notified police her car was obstructing traffic.
That doesn’t appear to be the timeline, even according to Mink’s own words:

It is the timeline according to her. Somebody is lying. If you think the FOP doesn't lie, then you are a very gullible person.
She’s allowed to make mistakes. We all are. She admitted it wasn’t the best choice to call the commander, and she reported it to the ethics committee. Look, I’m not a fan of Mink. She gets some respect for admitting it wasn’t a great choice. Perhaps her supporters can also accept that she made a mistake that night.
My bigger issue is her repeated vitriol toward police and the fact she is on the public safety committee.
I am one of her supporters on this thread and have said repeatedly that she made a mistake just as she said herself in the above statement. Get over yourself.
I don’t feel the need to get over myself. What I wrote is remarkably fair. You may have said she has made a mistake, but others have dug in their heels.
That's not something to brag about
