Can it be that the people advocating these “reforms” are truly ignorant of the consequences?
1. You ‘reform’ the Police (Cuomo) by restricting the use of non-lethal tools and techniques such as tear gas, incapacitating chemical agents (peeper spray) and yes, choke holds. This removes the “middle ground” of law enforcement when some force is required, but lethal force is not justified. In this circumstance, the Police will be left with the options of ticketing an offender, or killing them. The predictable result is a spike in POIS (police officer involved shooting).
2. If the AOC’s of the world are successful, they eliminate the uniformed Police and substitute community organizers. That effectively tells the residents, you are on your own. Buy guns and lots of ammunition and protect yourselves, because there will not be anyone helpful when you need to call 911. Until the community organizers show up to enforce the “gun-free-zone” clause of the local Sanctuary City Act. The result, a giant spike in defensive homicides.
