    Commence de-policing.

    Or, maybe don’t shove a 75 year old man to the ground? :dunno:

    Do these cops have any self-awareness? It looked like a pretty mild shove. I don’t think the cop thought it would knock him down. But C’mon. Not everyone in your way has to be manhandled.

    Well it has come out to the west side.

    A lot of anti-police tagging in the area and some miscreants were laying in the road yesterday late afternoon blocking traffic around 30th and Georgetown. I did not know what was causing the traffic until I spoke with a local LEO. WTAF. I just reviewed my footage from last night on the Cameras but nothing sticks out.

    That old guy should have known better, but maybe he's got the Joe Biden Syndrome goin' on. I dunno.

    The cop was too pumped up. Needs his ass kicked.

    Until they actually prosecute these morons it’s only gonna get worse. No point in the police putting themselves in danger arresting them for the prosecutor to set them free.

    Protesters laying in my roadway are just speedbumps along the path of life.

    Where did you get info they were “bad eggs”? Or do you just assume because they were LEO they must be bad eggs?

    Some folks here share the sentiment about LEO. Not sure why. I guess they feel it justified. There used to be some serious cop bashing here and when cornered the truth came that the people (Mostly) doing it had done some dumb :poop: at some point exposing them to the system. Most of those members either stopped posting or were escorted to the Ingo gates.

    I can not see all 57 of these people as bad eggs and neither should anyone else until the truth surfaces.

    .
    I don't know anything about the police business or it's employment, but if I were in it, I think I would be looking at relocating away from any big city. Maybe small town or rural policing doesn't pay as much, but for the cop in the big city it's looking more like a no win situation.

    I have been working all week what’s the updates on our LEO buddies?

    Did Denny get Tai food at 2am on the way home after a riot?

    Did BBI go deep undercover in drag kinda like Bugs Bunny in the old cartoons or maybe as a ANTFA youth caring a skateboard?

    Still no signs of Police brutality protests or looting but we really don’t have much crime or unemployment. However we do have 3 stores that sell work boots so there’s that.

    Yes he should have. If there is a bee hive don't approach it.

    Am I correct in that your analogy of a bee hive applies to the police? So you are saying they are to be feared and avoided? I have a problem with that.

    From the video I infer the front line police are about to engage with protesters which you see shortly after the elderly man falls. Also an officer starts to help but is pulled back due to the above I assume, someone appears to immediately call it in, and a camo medic(?) gives aid almost immediately. So I don't have much to say negatively about actions after the push. But the old man was standing still, the officers were in no way impeded if they wanted to simply step around him and move forward. The officers involved seemed a little too comfortable pushing him out of the way.

    Oh for crap sake man. Are you serious.
    If a line of cops In Full riot gear are moving forward with Intent then hell yes. Leave them alone. This should be a given.
    Those guys are on high energy so just step off. What good will come of your interference.

    We can argue all day as to the merits of lack of here. Yes that guy should have stayed back. No he should not have been knocked down but man just stay out of their way.

    I read it more as they are on high-alert, high-nerves, and doing something that could be perceived poorly is a bit risky. Would be quite on-edge to have to be in the thick of something like that, unsure who nearby is looking to harm you.

    Those 57 didnt fully resign. Only from the RRT duty. Still on the job as cops.

    And I just read an interview with one of them clarifies why; It wasnt because of solidarity. It was coincidental. Its because the union said they wouldnt provide support for them if anything happened while working that detail.

    So OK, If I go from working a special job and getting hazard pay because more bad things are likely to happen, and suddenly my boss says "OK, you no longer get that extra pay." Im not sure I want to take that risk anymore. (not an exact analogy, but close enough)
