Too bad for those officers, but they made the right choice. Who want's to be the next Officer Chauvin?

Better suspended than on trial for murder.

Whatever happened to “no duty to protect”?

The article says they never reported the shooting incident, describing it instead as ‘fireworks’.
So this may be the real reason for suspensions.

This was not police business; authorities should have sent a social worker to talk with community citizens about choices which lead to less-than-favorable outcomes.

Deescalate the violence.

Can’t blame the cops. If they make a mistake they can be sued civilly and lose everything they have. Let the winos shoot each other and clean up the mess or call a social worker.

What were they supposed to do? Shoot the guy in the head to stop him from shooting himself in the leg?

The guy didn’t ask for help.

His friends didn’t ask for help.

The guy tended to his own wounds and walked AWAY from the cops.

This sounds like proper policing to me. Sure - it’d be nice if the police were good samaritans and I’m sure if DeBlasio were there he would’ve not only rendered first aid but offered him free food from Shake Shack and free money from the working men in NYC.

But the police were and are doing exactly what DeBlasio wanted.

They made the right choice and followed the directives of Mayor Kaiser Wilhelm and the District Attorney.
