The Los Angeles Police Commission wants LAPD police officers to run away when a suspect confronts them with a weapon, warns the Los Angeles Police Protective League, the labor union of the city’s police officers.

The organization posted a blog post critical of the commission’s recent decision to find that fault lay upon an LAPD officer who used deadly force when a female suspect, Norma Guzman, came at him and his partner swinging a large knife.

“The key facts in this case are not in dispute. A female suspect, armed with an 8 to 9-inch knife, charged at officers, repeatedly ignored commands to stop, and was recorded yelling ‘shoot me’ as she swung her knife from side to side,” the LAPPL Board of Directors wrote in a blog post.

I can't imagine why, with all this PC crap, anyone would want to become a Police Office in these large, liberal-infested cities.

Forced wussification.

Run Away!

They want cops to be UNARMED and only the perps to be armed, that is the progressive agenda

I can just hear SGT Friday now telling the LA Police Union Commission OFF!

Run except when the armed suspects are threatening members of the police commission. I’m sure the members would insist that the cops defend them ... just not the rest of society.

My wife and I vigorously support President Duterte in the Philippines.

He is presently engaged in ridding the nation of (primarily) drugs, but criminality and govt. corruption as well.

He has said many times in the recent past (and again just yesterday or the day before) ... "If you feel you might lose your life, don't hesitate .. shoot him dead .... I will NEVER allow a policeman or military be prosecuted for doing his job"

Remember Trump has said a number of times ... "The local police know who they are"

There will be no cowardly acts under the Trump administration and I don't much give a jit what people think about that attitude.

We've been playing PC politics long enough, it has gotten us nowhere, Trump knows it and wants to stop it.

period.

Old movie I enjoyed from the 80’s was Star Chamber which would deal with these types of things very efficiently.

Cause they can park somewhere and hide their whole shift.

Had a friend that didn’t arrest someone in NYC for years.

And dont forget the ny scandal where DOZENS of cops and gals were partying in a park for at least months!!!

and then there’s the narc money and prostitutes.

What an LAPD encounter will look like in 2026.

They want cops to be UNARMED and only the perps to be armed, that is the progressive agenda

They want police federalized with centralized control and the first step is to make local police with local control impossible that is the progressive agenda.
