57 members of Buffalo police riot response team resign from assignment in support of fellow cops suspended for critically injuring elderly man
- Thread starter KingM
- Start date
So, 57 snowflakes decided to resign from this team, in protest, because two of its members were suspended without pay. lol
You're telling me not one of these motherfuckers can't see that pushing an old man like that is not okay?

"We were ordered to beat up peaceful protesters, and that's what we did. Nobody said there was an age limit on who's head we caved in! This is totally unfair!"
The cops aren't there to "restore order", they're there to take their aggression out on people who don't fight back.
Exactly my thought, they should really get out now while the getting is good and join the protestors.
Edit: I see they didn't resign fully, just from this team. Fuck these assholes
Why are they even allowed to resign from the duty? If they are going to refuse to do their job, they should either have to resign from the job entirely or be fired.
And that's only the tip of what is wrong there.

I wish they'd really stand by their convictions and quit their jobs altogether.
That statement in the article is such bullshit... that they think the issue is that they were just following orders and not that they fucking shoved an elderly man unnecessarily.

That quote is appalling.
Just watch the fucking video, you fucking muppet, if you "don't know how much contact was made".
Unfuckingbelievable. Fire all who resigned and this fucker, too.
The Union will ensure that they'll continue to receive raises and contributions to their pension
In addition to defunding the police, maybe we can get a refund from the police? Those pensions are awfully expensive...
I was being facetious. As I understand it, there are no good ones.
"Should we side with the unarmed, elderly man who was assaulted and hospitalized?"
"No, let's stand with the people who split his head open and walked away leaving him bleeding on the pavement."
Yep. That's not even an "are we the baddies" question. That's proudly declaring "WE ARE THE BADDIES."

They always protest this way to get what they want. For once they must be told to fuck off by the Mayor/Governor whoever. Fuck them all.
Holy shit...I thought they resigned b/c of what was done to the old man, but they resigned b/c two officers received a slight slap on the wrist for attempted murder on a senior citizen. I'm at a loss for words..the depravity of it all. Burn it all down.
Fire them all, but I wouldn't be surprised if they were told to knock people over and keep moving and are now hurt and confused because they knocked people over and kept moving and are being criticized for it.
3rd option, they are resigning because their union declared that they won't pay for further incidents.
Sounds like something an abusive husband would say about his battered wife.
ACAB.
Wait they're doing it to support their murderous coworkers?
Uh, okay fuck them. Oh well, fewer cops is never a bad thing.

So these cops are staging their own protest over holding police accountable over their actions? Telling that his is how they act now that actual change and responsibility over their actions may happen for once.
