57 Buffalo cops resign from response team after officers suspended for shoving 75-year-old man to ground; DA investigating incident
All 57 officers of the Buffalo Police Emergency Response team resigned Friday afternoon in support of two police officers who were suspended without pay after shoving a 75-year-old man to the ground during a protest.
A police union representative told WKBW that the officers were following orders given to them by Deputy Police Commissioner Joe Gramaglia to clear the area and do not believe they were in the wrong.
While the members of the emergency response team resigned from their specific roles, they did not resign from the police department altogether and are still employed.
Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown said in a statement his office "is aware of developments related to the world assignments of certain members of the Buffalo police force."
He added: "At this time, we can confirm that contingency plans are in place to maintain police services and ensure public safety within our community."

Will the Buffalo Police Department sudden suffer an epidemic of Blue Flu? Perhaps it maybe pandemic if the mayors of Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Buffalo, and NYC decide to defund their police Departments.....
They still have their jobs, they just left the response team.Wow, did ANYONE expect this?! I will say, whatever side you are on the issue of the push that hurt that older gentleman, this response is that of people truly putting their money where their mouth is.

My spell mo check is broke in down.........Steel deck ........and yeah he got lit the hell up.......Even though I saw it............I REALLY NEVER SAW A ang thang.Steal?That was a small push and the guy tripped .............the pavement caused the damage...........
Was not an intentional take down........incidental only.
We had a guy in the engine room who knocked knocked cold.......hit a steal deck with the back of his head falling down.......and didn't know his own name for hours..........was an asshole though............got what he deserved on that one..........not related to this old guy in the Op
and the officer answered the democrat ... he said no i would not like a blowjob !The guy seemed to be asking a question. A shove was unnecessary.A police union representative told WKBW that the officers were following orders given to them by Deputy Police Commissioner Joe Gramaglia to clear the area and do not believe they were in the wrong.
They were never given orders to smash the heads of the elderly
It is possible to clear an area without pushing old people to the ground.
This may be true, I just wonder how they view the consequences if they hadn't cleared the area. I'm certainly not condoning this man being pushed. It's certainly unfortunate, though the cop couldn't have known he would fall back like that. He should have seen he was much older and fragile. Just walk past the guy. It became FAR worse when they lied about him tripping on his own.
One of the reasons I would like to see more former soldiers in positions of policing is I think they understand how to risk assess and use an appropriate response to the situation. Others just go into auto-pilot and rely on "use your training" mantra. That's well in good for an easily defined situation, but no amount of training can teach ones own genetic critical thinking infrastructure. Not thinking, just reacting shouldn't apply to all situations.

The other police officer pointed to the one stopping at first and called it in on the radio for medical attention...........You guys HYPE EVERYTHING.That was a small push and the guy tripped .............the pavement caused the damage...........

Small push to a 75 year-old... and even if you want to die on the hill of that argument, they are REQUIRED to provide first aid to a citizen in medical distress.
When you riot, bad things happen.The guy seemed to be asking a question. A shove was unnecessary.A police union representative told WKBW that the officers were following orders given to them by Deputy Police Commissioner Joe Gramaglia to clear the area and do not believe they were in the wrong.

No threat from a 70 year oldThere were protesters rushing into the area...they had to confront them.....It was one cop and I'm sure he didn't think the guy would trip on that concrete ball...the other cop got on his phone and called an ambulance...and then the cops had to attend to the rioters rushing towards them....at least that's what I saw on the video...They are wrong
The two cops were out of line
They walked right past him without bothering to see if he was hurt.
He was shoved and fell backwards
They still have their jobs, they just left the response team.Wow, did ANYONE expect this?! I will say, whatever side you are on the issue of the push that hurt that older gentleman, this response is that of people truly putting their money where their mouth is.

Would you rather he bashed his head in with a baton? There was no way for that officer to have foreseen the old man stumble and fall, striking his head, none whatsoever!The cop caused it all, if he had not pushed him, it would not have happened.That was a small push and the guy tripped .............the pavement caused the damage...........
