re: police have no obligation to defend anyone

Yet they can be sued and their and careers ruined if lawyers and mobs get behind those who might be harmed when police do their job.

It brings to the fore the obvious problem with BOTH conventions. Local police and other emergency services can have vacations suspended for the interval, so they have to be there. But what about help from outside departments? Some have already dropped out of Cleveland. Why would any security personnel get involved with either convention if they don't have to? Any amount of money wouldn't be worth the risk.

He should be making commercials about it.. They would be very effective in highlighting the current divide in Obama’s America.

Should make for an interesting summer! I am at wit's end as far as how we should proceed. Are we really to be slaves to these godless communists? But if we defend ourselves we are attacked, both by the lawless illegals and the legitimate organs of government. What to do?
