Beats what they used to do - which was shoot 'em.

Betcha a hundred bucks that the order came down from the mayor (who the police chief reports to), or from the feds, and not from within the department itself.

They'll just transfer to one of the many departments that shoots them on sight.

Interesting development....the NYC cops are demonstrating their own irrelevance!

Quote:So the NYPD stopped working and nobody noticed

Quote:Funny thing happened here in Bed-Stuy. Apparently this was supposed to be ground zero of the NYPD work stoppage. No arrests. No tickets. No nothing. Just bunkered in behind the walls of the 79th and 81st Precincts. Both of which now have armed SWAT types guarding the gates from imminent invasion.

So the funny thing is life has gone on pretty much normally. Nothing much is going on. Streets are quiet. All hell has not broken loose. Folks are going about their days normally. If policing has stopped, nobody seems to be noticing. We're told all 911 calls are being responded to and handled normally. Its just the police aren't actively going around pushing folks around.

Which brings us to a rather enlightening discovery: perhaps the NYPD could continue this style of policing with a lot less resources and manpower! Why have a bunch of bums sitting around doing nothing on the taxpayer's dime? Especially when crime is still under control and falling. Especially when the work stoppage has had no effect on the community whatsoever, except perhaps making everyone, including the NYPD, relax.

Mayor de Blasio should applaud the NYPD for demonstrating how much they need a lot less people to keep crime low and preserve order. Then, start laying people off and giving the slimmed down remaining force a well deserved raise.

Well, these NY cops are still working. Overkill, anyone?

Quote:New York family left homeless after 18 police agencies destroy entire home while serving DUI warrant

Quote:A New York family has been left homeless after law enforcement agencies effectively destroyed their entire house in the process of serving a warrant for a DUI.

The Ithaca Journal reported this week that 36-year-old David M. Cady Jr. had died after being barricaded in his home for three days.

Out of control.

Apparently their training is a tad weak in target identification.

And apparently, the dog was not a danger to the cop.

That's not required. The cop just has to say he felt threatened. The dog could be in the next town and it wouldn't matter.

I'm rather stunned that an "approaching" dog warrants shooting.
