It was just water, no one died. It was disrespectful. But hey it was hot outside and what are the cops going to do, call it in and say Help we are being attacked with water.....They would be total laughingstocks of the precinct. Same thing if there were videos of them running around like chickens trying to catch all of them.

Tell you what. Message me your work address with your picture, and I’ll come up with some friends and we will start pouring water on you!!
Hey, what would you do, call the cops and cry that you are being attacked with water? You would be the laughingstock of the other MacDonalds employees.
The bottom line is if it were done to him he’d be screaming bloody murder...
I don't understand anyone in their right mind wanting to be a policeman working in a major city.
NYC residents soon will because of the increasing crime rate. They will blame the police.
If it weren't for the pay, pension and benefits then no one. You can make over $100k in less than 5 years (including OT). I have friends and family that are cops and firemen and they do very well financially. Hopefully once this thug sympathetic mayor is out things will go back to normal. Notice that we haven't heard a peep out of that coward Deblasio.
To all the liberal knuckleheads who think being doused with water and having buckets thrown at cops is ‘no big deal’, if we follow through on your opinion, if you or your family were the ones being accosted by this group on a public street, and there were two cops across the street, they would not be expected to interfere and protect you. After all, it’s ‘just water’.
This occurred because the POS mayor is responsible for creating an environment where this type of behavior is tolerated. They are not supported by their superiors. If they made an arrest, they would be cut loose before their shift was over with a possible fine. They are told by their bosses not to engaged for fear of perceived racism. Zero support. Except of course, when a video gets out and embarrasses them. If they would have reacted and arrested, it wasn't going to go down nicely. Someone was going to get knocked around. Imagine that video of "police over react to water play". Damned if they do and and damned if they don't. Sh*t runs down hill. Tip of the iceberg....city is going to crap again.
Yeah, that's why I think they shouldn't even have bothered with that traffic stop. Just let them run wild.
