Yes. It's another example of our police getting out of control.
The police union boss John Evans was quoted, "“Fifty-seven resigned in disgust because of the treatment of two of their members, who were simply executing orders”
Were the two cops ordered to walk away from a man bleeding from a cracked skull? How does negligently ignoring an injured person 'serve and protect' the public?
Was the police spokesperson ordered to lie and say that the elderly man "tripped and fell"?
-----------
A distinct pattern of police misconduct has emerged that includes many examples of excessive force. If the 57 cops don't want to serve on the riot squad with professionalism and accountability, let them walk.
Every single job description I’ve ever read had,
“And other duties as assigned”
Fire them and hire new ones.
Police have powerful unions. It's not so simple. I know a cop here (Miami Beach) who was fired because instead of patrolling the streets, he was caught in a nightclub, getting drunk, and dancing in uniform, with his service pistol (he even waived it around to impress some ladies). The union stepped in, and he was rehired.

The more you oppress the People and the more brutal your tactics of repression are, the more the unrest will grow and the seeds of outright rebellion are sown.
Until the police and the police state understand this simple point this will not end.
The idiot cops could have just escorted the man out of the zone instead of shoving him. I am 56 and don't have the same balance and reflexes I did when I was 40.
It's good that you're self-aware.
Would you, 20 years from now, put yourself in front of an advancing riot police line, walk up to them, and touch them over and over?
Good for them. Not worth it. They can't even take a pee without someone criticizing em for it. Let the liberal inner cities and their obtuse leaders deal with it themselves.

This 57 PO's who resigned is in protest maybe be the best news ever! IF they sympathize with ignorant knocking down a OLD man and walk away with Blood oozing from his head, consciousness unknown is being condoned by these "57" resignations!! I say Good Riddance!
Next step , These folks need to be tracked and traced to whichever jurisdiction they move on to~~ Mandatory historical "Work history MUST follow them"!! Vetting MUST be done!

The simple act of resigning (they think) will above they record ( which has been hidden) could be exposed for anyone hiring them in their near future! They got away with False reporting ( which is a legal document) but today, their reports proven FALSE by recorded history of their actions!!
I truly think, the "Worm has turned" and hiding/burying malfeasants by officer's will no longer be tolerated. It's available by court orders IF there's any question surrounding their actions/activities/ reprimands/reports etc!

Can’t shove an older man to the ground then walk on bye without people filming it and zeroing in on the man’s head injury.
