Editor,
I have a big shout-out to Austin Walsh for his reporting in “Burlingame talks about police force policy” (June 19). Reviewing city council recordings can be like watching paint dry, but Austin has delivered a real public service with his effort. Because of his vigilance we now know we have a sitting member of the City Council, Michael Brownrigg, who advocates that the city of Burlingame engage in employment discrimination. The Brownrigg quote, “Basically, every new hire (in the Burlingame Police Department) from now on should be women” is past disconcerting, it’s appalling.

He is a Democrat, he is just taking his que from creepy, sleepy Joe.
This is the same guy who suggested the (Burlingame) department consider disarming officers on routine calls which do not require service weapons ! Nutso
