Using the police for social distancing is bad because:
1. The police are armed with guns, pepper spray.
2. The police carry sticks and handcuffs.
3. The police are trained to subdue anyone who resists.
4. The criminal Justice system can deprive you of your liberty, property, reputation and life.
5. The police have a mind that is binary: either/or, yes/no. There are no subtle distinctions such as This guy is no danger to me. or Walking 5.9 feet of another person is not a crime, even if the government says it is.
6. Sending the police for walking too close implies not caring if a woman is being raped at that moment and there is no cop available. That list is PRECISELY why Newsom, Garcetti, Pritzker, Whitmer and their ilk are all in on using the heaviest handed blunt instrument they can find on the peasants.

How soon before no-go zones are a fixture in Democrat controlled areas?

LA already has a no go zone for the LAPD.

Cops are thinking, what's IN those? Urine? Ammonia? Bleach? Something worse? Eyeroll.

By "Eyeroll.", is it assumed that you are okay with random people shooting random liquids at you?
Or was "Eyeroll." for something else?

It shows a valuable lesson in that when SHTF,the police will be worthless. That is pretty much the last line of defense for local government also. I don’t want anarchy anymore than totalitarian government police. This lock down and petty social distancing BS needs to wane or we will have true civil unrest leading to true SHTF horror.

I’m quite sure you’d have been happier if the police would have just started shooting all these horrible miscreants. After all, they were ‘assaulting’ the police.
I’m sure you can find some boots somewhere to lick.

I noticed the backs of their BODY ARMOR says CHP, California HIGHWAY Patrol.
My response to the JACK BOOTED THUGS is get your lazy, worthless asses back on the road and write some tickets, the State needs the money.

The CHP is now the state police force, no longer limited to highways and byways.
Just to clarify, that picture is from a May 1st protest. I do NOT want that sign to disappear down the memory hole.
Good luck finding it on google...

A couple of months ago I was outraged when young thugs in New York disrespected police officers by dumping a bucket of water on them. Now in this incident not so much After reading stories of police arresting mothers for playing with their kids in a park, removing basketball hoops so they can't be used and dumping bags of nails in church driveways, I'm also not all that outraged.

Today its water, tomorrow its a Molotov cocktail.

I love that sign. I wish all of that would fit on a face mask. Maybe just the last sentence would be enough.

You're "quite sure" of your ASSumption about me. I'd rather them not have been there at all, enforcing unconstitutional crap.
My original post stands, cops (and everyone else) should worry about any liquid being shot, thrown, spit, or whatever.
And I have never, nor will I ever, lick a boot. I've spit-shined quite a few, though. Using water, not spit. 8~)
