  1. There will be a lot more actions like this, the police will stand and fight as long as the politicians have their back, the politicians are proving they don’t care about the police and are giving the police no reason to remain on the job.

    • I totally agree. I could easily see a normal family-oriented cop talking with their partner and seriously considering either moving to a red state or going for a new career altogether – maybe a teacher or a social worker or a psychologist or construction. It’s bad enough that the left-wing mobs abuse them endlessly but add to that the ease with which the Quisling politicians throw them under the bus and the stress-load becomes obviously unbearable. I do not know how they take it and I feel genuinely sorry for them when I see them being abused before my eyes.

      There is every possibility that New York is about to become the next Detroit with apartment buildings going to a hundred bucks and with the constant need for armed protection, preferably a Bradley Fighting Vehicle… It could happen so fast it would make your head spin. Like, who would want to be stuck with property at $10-a-square foot in a town full of roaming gangs of savages who hate your guts all day long while the mayor “de-funds” the police…? Run!!!

      • There’ll be a big market for private security. Opportunity for private enterprise, good guys will have fine careers.
