What is the problem here.

I have a close friend who retired from the police four years ago. I've know his kids their entire lives, and he's a great dad and was a great cop. And it pains him to tell his son, "Do not go into the police." The scrutiny of every action you do is beyond believe right now. We're raising generations of kids to be against law and order, and we have an administration allowing an invasion of criminals over our southern border. 

You want another great example of why police are getting the hell out of the job. From the New York Police Department: 



NEW YORK — A group of migrants pummeled NYPD officers attempting to make an arrest outside a shelter in Times Square, police and sources said Tuesday.

Two officers and a lieutenant from the NYPD’s Midtown South Precinct approached the group of men outside a migrant shelter on West 42nd Street near Seventh Avenue around 8:30 p.m. Saturday, cops said...

The officers had been trying to break up the disorderly crowd outside the Candler Building, where the city announced the opening of a mega-shelter in March. When the cops attempted to put one of the men under arrest, multiple people attacked, according to authorities.

The men kicked and punched the officers in the head and body, video released by police shows.

“They were kicking and punching one of the cops,” a security guard in the area told the Daily News on Tuesday. “They mobbed [the cops]. It was wild.”

The lieutenant suffered a cut to his face during the melee. He was treated on the scene along with his colleagues, according to cops.

Two 19-year-old men, a 24-year-old man and a 21-year-old man were arrested at the scene. All were charged with assault on a police officer...

Four of the suspects were released without bail following arraignment in Manhattan Criminal Court...

New York Post, first, they are not "migrants," but illegal aliens. But four suspects, who have no connections to the area (family, jobs, etc) charged with assaulting a peace officer, are cited and released! All they have to do is walk off and there is nothing we can do, unless they are unlucky enough to get busted again and (going out on a limb here). From the PBA president:
“Attacks on police officers are becoming an epidemic, and the reason is [the] revolving door we’re seeing in cases like this one,” Patrick Hendry, president of the Police Benevolent Association, said in a statement. “It is impossible for police officers to deal effectively with crime and disorder if the justice system can’t or won’t protect us while we do that work...”
I've said it too many times to count. The police are joining the fire department, i.e., they are signing on, answering their calls for service, but doing nothing self initiated. You can't take risks these days. And why would you? God knows, the ex-cop now in charge of New York will not back you up. NYPD, watch yourselves, you are targets now. God Bless.
