    BIG BEND, Wis. (WISN) - Five members of a local police department quit on the same day. Those five represent nearly half of the department. The Village of Big Bend announced the resignations on its Facebook page. … Anderson says the Village president’s plan to dissolve the Fire and Police Commission in early December was the last straw for him and the five officers who quit.

    It’s funny that these “heroes” can’t even handle public scrutiny. Imagine if nurses quit every time a hospital made bad organizational or budgetary choices. If your job is actually important for a community, you don’t quit it. You can’t quit it. It’s a duty and a responsibility to your fellow man. These cops are quitting over political discourse. If that’s all it takes, sounds like they weren’t doing much to begin with.
