So what happens if (when) there is a shooting or other violence during this mess? "who ya gonna call?"

Sometimes the police can be very slooooooooow to respond.

Great.

And without the police the Democrats and left would be the first to cry and moan and whine if no one showed up for their 911 emergency.

I don’t get lawless behavior. That’s not civil disobedience. That’s outright criminality. Few times in my life I feel the restraints need to come off of the police. This is one of them.

You already are just by virtue of being Republicans.


How's your war against windmills going?

Police are preparing for a massive anti-police protest that could bring chaos to Friday’s morning and afternoon transit commutes, officials said.

Protesters are expected to jump turnstiles en masse and tag up train stations throughout the five boroughs during the anti-NYPD rally, titled “F--- The Police III," which is in response to alleged “over-policing” in the subway, including supposed racially-motivated fare-beating arrests and ticketing.

ALL police should stay a "sick-in" that day and let the people see what happens when the police are NOT around!

the very idea that people have to receive punishment proportional to their numerical population, not their actual behavior, is jaw-dropping stupidity.
Flame throwers are more effective and easier to find than ant hills.

I don't suppose this could possibly be because the fare evaders are disproportionately low income brown people, could it? Nah, that would make way too much sense. Let's just go with the all-purpose cry of "racism."

True statement.
They should have to face the inner city gangs without the help of police.


God Bless our law enforcement.

The way to go ahead in life is to believe you can make a difference. Most important thing is not to depend on the Government to take care of your life.

Maybe the solution is, whenever one of these protests happen, just shut the subway down. Have every train pull into the next station, open its doors, and announce that service is suspended until further notice due to massive theft of services. Of course, this will greatly inconvenience the commuters who have nothing to do with the protests. But in a way, that's the point. Maybe they'll get so fed up that they'll demand their socialist mayor to start paying attention to society's producers instead of its takers.
