The NYPD will launch a unit of 350 cops to handle both counterterrorism and protests

[JOAT]

“It will be equipped with all the extra heavy protective gear, with the long rifles and the machine guns that are unfortunately sometimes necessary in these ­instances.”

Huh.

I wonder how this would have been received before the 2 officers were executed?

You know what cracks me up? People “making fun” of the lightly-armed French police, then “making concern” about heavily-armed American police.

[JOAT]

I think it’s funny that the bastion of leftist Hell, NYC, is justifying buying the very weapons they deny the serfs. Then having the B@ll$ to say “it’s necessary”

Is it terrorism or counterterrorism they are worried about?

Depends on who is doing the defining.

I noticed they were lumping 'terrorism; in with 'protesting'

Thought we were to quit using the word TERRORISM?

Thought we were to quit using the word TERRORISM?

Only when applied to Muzzloids.

Will the police be able to defend themselves against the Mayor?

Not if they have to rely on their union.
