Chicago cops told to not respond to officers being attacked

[Mac-7]

So is Trump, and then?

Not trump, not yet

But if the violent attacks on ICE and Homeland Security continue they will have to respond in kind

The insurrectionists are getting bolder

 

[Mac-7]

.

How many of us see that this is going to lead to a time when the local PD's just go rogue and join the NG and ICE?

Happy day.

.

Dont hold your breath waiting for that to happen

The cops in deep blue cities will stand down because their jobs are on the line, and their pensions

Well, I'm thinking more of a time when it will become obvious that no one is going to be able to pay their wages and pensions anyway.

[ThisIsMe]

The police don't have a duty to protect anyone not in their custody or control. I guess Trump's national guard troops will have to actually do something

Um..they have a duty to enforce the law...

In that case the cops will have nothing to lose by walking off the job

Then crime that is already bad will skyrocket

And how close are we to that now?

I wish I knew

But its certainly getting more out of hand each week

Trump will have to take the gloves off

And the liberal/moderates on the Supreme Court will have to get off their fat asses and reign in the rogue lower court judges

 

[Dekster]

No they don't. Just because it is what they are paid to do does not mean they are compelled to do it. This has also been covered by the SCOTUS in a case where they said the police had no obligation to protect a woman from a known abuser after she called them. Their public duty is to society as a whole, and not any particular individual or circumstance except when they are in police custody and/or control.

What is the #1 duty of government?

That makes zero sense. What do you think the job of the police is? To patrol the area and prevent crime, and to apprehend those who do commit crimes. They are there to protect people as well. You are suggesting that if somebody is surrounded by a crowd and they are imminent danger that the police have no duty to stop and protect that person.

If what you're suggesting is true, then the police have no obligation to do anything at all. In other words, they don't have to lift a finger to do their job until the crime has been committed.

 

[Delldude]

You indicated you felt they should be charged with a crime. There is no duty to show up and help, so there is nothing even remotely criminal about not showing up at all. The rest will play out however it plays out.

DOJ can investigate civil rights abuses by the police department.

 

[Dogmaphobe]

Just The Left being their totally normal, wholesome, moral high ground straddling American warrior advocating selves.

The leftists here see criminals as their own.


During the summer of hate, I identified with all the innocent business owners being attacked by Democrat Brownshirts. You see, I own a small business and am a productive member of society and so identify with my own.

Democrat posters, on the other hand supported the criminals for the same reason. Even if not actual criminals, themselves, they identify with the criminal mindset because those are THEIR own.

 

[WEATHER53]

Leave our criminals and illegals Alone . They are the only class under us and are our pets

[Rawley]

Yet I managed to stay felony free.

You haven't threatened a Democrat's power

 

[Correll]

You haven't threatened a Democrat's power

He's playing dumb.

Doesnt the fact that they are paid an annual salary to arrest criminals, mean that they have a duty to arrest criminals?

 

[Rawley]

No they don't. Just because it is what they are paid to do does not mean they are compelled to do it. This has also been covered by the SCOTUS in a case where they said the police had no obligation to protect a woman from a known abuser after she called them.

you should not play lawyer on the internet

He's playing dumb.

"playing?"

The area invaded by the CHAZ/CHOP criminals in the summer of 2020 was in one of my old neighborhoods, where my brother-in-law owned a small business, and it was so hard to watch them try to destroy it.

[Correll]

"playing?"

In this, yes.

He is dumb. But no one who can form whole sentences, would be dumb enough to NOT know why Trump was charged with those "34 felonies".

ie, because Trump threatened democrat power.
