Dallas has been enjoying a sharp increase in crime since the police shut down an expressway so the chief could have a procession honoring a cop killer.

So now he's willing to respond to drive down crime by arming his cops with nerf - type weapons.

Our obama-era cops are on the ropes now to the point they’re using toy weapons rather than spend a decade in court.

I think if I were a policeman there I would resign immediately. Let the police chief safeguard the city,

Lets shoot the perps with marshmallows or feathers or rubber bands.

Maybe the sponges will absorb the lead being shot at the officers...

If the sponges are soaked with nasty, smelly water, then I could see it.

Bringing a sponge to a lead fight? Not too advisable!

Anyone that would want to be a LEO today needs a psych evaluation. I heavily discourage those that talk to me about being one.

In the vast majority of cases, if a thug is worth shooting at all, he's worth shooting with lead and not with a Nerf toy.

I'm okay with testing this on the family dog, instead of killing an aggressive Labrador puppy, but human thugs deserve lead.

Yeah, but when the perp survives being shot by a racist cop, he’ll want all the moola from the lawsuit.
He’ll end up dead anyway when his relatives kill him.

Won’t be much interest if it won’t kill a dog.

This is BS that is going to get cops hurt or killed.

If you don't comply with lawful orders from Police and are a threat to them or someone else your ass needs a Center Mass Double Tap with something that starts with .4 and can't be scrubbed off with Ajax.

So, they have decided to exchange one set of celebrity protesters for another?

A sponge gun is one way to “wipe” out crime.
