Report: Philadelphia PD Ordered Officers Not to Arrest Rioters and Looters — Just Disperse Them — as City Was Ransacked

The police in Philadelphia were told not to arrest anyone. Deputy Police Commissioner Melvin Singleton allegedly ordered police not to arrest any of the rioters. That makes no sense. If you don’t arrest them, they will just go ransack another business. Yet, somehow the police did manage to arrest ninety of them. Will the arresting cops be punished.

“By the order of CAR-2, Philadelphia Police will respond to ‘priority’ calls only,” the alleged directive from the department obtained by Keeley said. “This means no calls for disturbance, missing person, stolen vehicle, burglary or theft will be answered.”

Steve Keeley@KeeleyFox29·7hYesterday when police announced the number of arrests in the Mon-Tues looting, charges were for “burglary”. And in the directive, @phillypolice point out no calls for burglary will be responded to by the dept. & officers think that leaves no deterrent to stop looting @FOX29philly

Rioters hit the streets on Monday and immediately started looting and burning. They would not let Antifa or Jews that showed up were not allowed in with BLM. Governor Tom Wolf called them peaceful protesters even after they injured 30 cops and one journalist.

One hilarious thing has come out of the riots in Philly that I find completely hysterical. A looter came out of a store to find that a fellow looter had stolen his car. And when he called the police, they told him that all available officers were out handling the looters and were not answering many calls including auto theft.

The riots started after police were called on Walter Wallace Jr for the third time that day. Wallace made his way towards officers with a knife in his hand. The officers kept backing off and ordering him to drop the knife. He kept advancing until finally he was shot...

One of the best reasons to leave the Democrat party. They embrace the riots of Blue cities and states.

Maybe it’s time for old Melvin to find other employment and put someone in there to do the job properly.

That is the kind of police department the left wants. The only difference, they would also have the police disarmed as well. Biden should be happy.

These cops had better go on strike and fulfill their constitutional oaths. It seems they’re more interested in their pensions than the safety and security of the public at large who pay their DAMNED wages.

The Philadelphia Inquirer is reporting "tensions", "scattered vandalism", and "unrest".

Nothing to see here.

The cops will slowly and quietly move on to other _real_ police departments.

Philly will be able to keep only the corrupt and/or stupid cops that can’t find a job elsewhere.

If Biden wins, this will be the standard operating procedure. Add to this, the likely ensuing gun confiscations, and we will be in for one hell of a ride.

Police departments were the chief is selected by the major and can be fired by him/her at anytime do not work

We need a return to the use of Sheriff’s, individuals that are voted in and have no allegiance to anyone including the governor.
