It's already in their MOU to board twice a shift for each officer, and that went well for a while when first implemented many moons ago...then faded away to nothing. So realistically, how long do you think they will keep this current promise which is really just a response to their earlier failure to keep their past promise? How long will they keep this up as directed in the new MOU? The common definition of insanity is repeating the same action over and over and expecting different results. No, I want a dedicated police force on the Transit that is not beholden to SFPD but is a separate political entity and beholden strictly to the Transit (SFMTA) and serving its customers and not beholden to the POA or SFPD. We all know that eventually the money that has been secured this round by SFPD is gonna be redirected to its (granted) more serious citywide concerns once the whole thing blows over... or once Dufty or Ammiano get their coveted Mayoralship. No, I want Transit Police not SFPD babysitting. They’ve already made promises in their MOU and already broken them.
