my name is martin howard, the president of the san francisco police officers association. last week councilmember avalos introduced to this board disparaging remarks and language to the san francisco police department on the number of shootings that have occurred in this city. there was also language in this resolution comparing the incidents in ferguson, missouri and new york to incidents that occurred in our city. supervisor avalos was attempting to paint members of the sf p.d. with a broadbrush as being trigger-happy. nothing could be further from the truth. as a 25-year veteran of this fine department and speaking from this personal experience i can tell you the use of lethal force is the worse experience that any officer in san francisco or anywhere in this country has to go through. it is a nightmare and often haunts the officer for the rest of their lives. i can also tell you that there is no more diverse culturally enlightened, better trained and better educated urban law enforcement agency than the sfpd. the sf poa is a sponsor that provides dreams for toys for you
