If you listen to Republican State Rep. Steve Smyk talk about himself, he’s all about the public safety community. The former state cop calls himself “an outspoken authority on public safety issues,” but what he really should call himself is a traitor to the people he claims are more important than you or me. He has a 93% rating from the NRA, a level only devoted gun-suckers reach.
Smyk, who is known as “Smyk the Dick” or “Smyk the Prick,” depending on whom you ask, was the president of the Delaware State Trooper Association, the state troopers’ union, which oversaw a long-running scam soliciting donations from a gullible public for “Camp Barnes.” The vast majority of the money raised went to the telemarketing firm; most of the rest went to build the a swell clubhouse for our overburdened (with overtime pay, that is) state police. Camp Barnes was lucky to get $10,000 a year of the hundreds of thousands raised. So we know he’s a scam artist got no problem with scam artistry.
Here’s the question for today: If he’s all about the public safety veterans, whom he clearly regards as more equal than the rest of us, why won’t he act to restrict the weapons criminals use to outgun police?
Smyk has taken $800 in blood-soaked gun money. Give it back, Steve, or admit you’re a typical blue-clad phony about public safety.
