LAPD Advises City Residents to ‘Cooperate and Comply’ with Robbers

The Los Angeles Police Department tweeted a release advising city residents to “cooperate and comply” when being robbed.

The release begins:

Due to an increase in violent street robberies, Robbery-Homicide Division has become aware of an ongoing crime trend of follow-home robberies. Suspects have been locating victims in Los Angeles, following them, and then committing the robberies as the victim arrives home or at their business. … These crimes have occurred throughout the City of Los Angles as well as neighboring cities. Different suspects have been identified and arrested for these types of crimes.

LAPD uses the release to outline seven points conveying the department’s advice for what city residents ought to do in response to the robberies.

Point five on the release says, “If you are being robbed, do not resist the robbery suspects; cooperate and comply with their demands. Be a good witness.”

California is one of the most stringently gun-controlled states in the Union. The state has had universal background checks and an “assault weapons” ban since the 1990s.

Moreover, the state limits the number of guns law-abiding citizens can buy each month, requires law-abiding citizens to show “good cause” in order to be approved for a concealed carry permit, bans campus carry for self-defense, bans K-12 teachers from having guns for classroom defense, has a ten-day waiting period on gun purchases, has gun registration requirements for law-abiding citizens, has a red flag law, and the state also has a ban on “high-capacity” magazines (which is currently being litigated).

Additionally, California has ammunition controls which include background checks for ammunition purchases and said purchases to in-state ammunition dealers who are approved by the state.

In spite of all the gun and ammunition controls, Los Angeles is seeing “an increase in violent street robberies.”

And there is ‘lead-free’ ammo for hunting.

I expect that will expand to ‘lead-free’ for self defense.

You know, to protect all those cannibals who eat gut piles.

Absolutely resist. They’re probably going to kill you anyway.

But today the NY Post had an article on how to protect yourself from being pushed onto the tracks. And nobody is upset that they would even have to publish such a thing?

I guess the criminals rule now, and it’s all okay if you’re a “good” complaisant victim.

Wow. Great deterrent. Great way to combat rising crime, LAPD. Just let the criminals do their thing.

the release says, “If you are being robbed, do not resist the robbery suspects; cooperate and comply with their demands. Be a good witness.”

Next law in CA will be if you do resist and fail to comply with the demands of criminals, you will be arrested and charged.

Easy: define yourself as a robber in lurking who was waiting for someone to break in so you could rob them, and demand their cooperation and compliance.

Of course RATs want you to ‘cooperate and comply with their demands’. It's professional courtesy.

Next step: During rape, lie back and enjoy it. Brought to you by liberalism, friend of women everywhere, especially in the MidEast.

Yes, this will definitely discourage the thugs - a lot of them probably recently released from jail for racial equity.

No, I think shooting the person attempting to rob, and possibly kill you, is a better option.

Waiting for Newsome to mandate all residents put their belongings outside so folks won’t hurt themselves while stealing it.

Personally I think the best advice is “Stay Alive.” Doing whatever you need to protect your life has priority. That would be up to the individual to decide.

Wouldn’t a robber be more inclined to kill a person they thought would be a good witness?

Is that while standing on their corpse or over their corpse?
