The aroma in Tacoma By Michelle Malkin April 03, 2007 02:43 PM Remember the anti-war thugs who shouted down and taunted our troops as they headed off to war in Tacoma (see link below)? Now, the city of Tacoma is billing the military to pay for the law enforcement costs of policing the peace mob: <<< Tacoma police say last month's 12-day anti-war protests cost the city an unbudgeted $500,000 to provide a large-scale law enforcement presence. The rough estimate covers overtime, regular compensation, equipment and food for hundreds of workers from Tacoma police and other agencies, Assistant Chief Bob Sheehan said. The city plans to ask the Port of Tacoma and the military to cover some of the costs. "That's a tremendous hit on our budget -- a half-million dollars of unexpected expense," said Tacoma Mayor Bill Baarsma, adding that the military would get the first invoice. "I think our request is justifiable," Baarsma said. "I would expect that we would be reimbursed. I would be surprised if we weren't." >>> Unreal. michellemalkin.com michellemalkin.com seattlepi.nwsource.com
