Andrew Cuomo went on a rant against police who refuse to enforce his lockdown rules, insinuating they aren’t true law enforcement officers.
Last week, the New York governor restricted the number of people that can attend a Thanksgiving gathering in a private residence and imposed a curfew on bars and restaurants.
“We know indoor gatherings and parties are a major source of COVID spread,” he announced. “To slow the spread, NYS will limit indoor gatherings at private residences to 10 people.”
The edict produced a backlash amongst several sheriffs in the Empire State, with some even saying they would not be enforcing the arbitrary rules.

Cuomo attacked those in law enforcement who refused to carry out his whim as maybe not being true officers of the law.
“I don’t believe that person is a law enforcement officer,” Cuomo told reporters Wednesday. “I don’t want a law enforcement officer who says, ‘I’m only enforcing the law that I like or think should be enforced.’”
The Democrat governor went on to equate mask-wearing and private gatherings to domestic violence.
“Well, ‘I’m not going to enforce domestic violence laws because that’s a family affair?'” he mocked. “No: There’s a law and you have to enforce the law, or don’t call yourself a law enforcement officer.”

What Cuomo means is that these law enforcement officials who are sworn to uphold both the federal and state constitution, are not willing to accept his “gumba” threats and enforcers.
And NYS still has a WuFlu problem in its nursing homes, though the enemedia is ignoring it.
