Sure, but we can't have people in places of authority just openly saying that rights are not rights and they would retaliate against people for using them, the entire point of the 1st amendment is to ensure we can criticize government. This blatantly flies in the face of that.
he's the union president, not the chief of police... he's sort of expected to respond this way to put pressure on the actual officials
I guess that makes sense, however I still condemn the guy for shitting on the first amendment that way.
