“First, the Chief told my deputy that while the weapon drawn wasn’t a pistol, it was, in fact, a “pepper ball gun.” In a separate conversation, the Chief claimed it was a “taser.” In a recent Facebook post, the Department is now saying it was a “electronic control device.” Paxton said. “Whatever it was, the police declined to pursue the leftist who brandished the weapon, and no charges are being pressed against him.”

Paxton continued, “Second, the Chief was anxious to excuse the rioters. “You have to understand the situation.” urged the Chief. “We have to negotiate with these people. Do you expect us to mass arrest the protesters? You know that’s not going to happen.”


Maybe the Plano police chief should be looking for another line of employment

If blocking traffic is against the law then yes, arrest them.

So, perhaps a mass of people show up at his house to rape his wife, rape his dog, take all his stuff, then burn the house down, and he will need to negotiate with them, because there are too many to arrest?

No you smart ass poop for brains. You tell the cars blocking the street to move now or their cars will be impounded and start calling for tow trucks and asking for volunteers to start moving cars out of the way. The protestors can walk home.

Ed Drain is Plano’s first police chief in 20 years and just started in January 21. He is black and apparently inclined to “negotiate” with BLM and Antifa.

Here is the Catch 22. Law enforcement stands down, people do it themselves (not an ideal situation, which is why we have law and order in the first place). Once the people handle it themselves, law enforcement comes and arrests or kills them. That’s where we are. We didn’t get here overnight; it won’t be solved overnight.

"Do you expect us to mass arrest the protesters? You know that’s not going to happen."

If it were a Trump rally they'd figure it out.

“Negotiate”?

Seriously?

Smells like appeasement to me. How's bout ‘negotiating with the armed thug who holds up the quick shop?

I know officers in Plano PD and they all say the protesters should have been arrested. Couldn’t tell me why they weren’t arrested but looking at the mayor and police chief I guess we can see why.

Police Chiefs do what they are told to do.

They are employees, not elected officials.

“You have to understand the situation.” urged the Chief. “We have to negotiate with these people. Do you expect us to mass arrest the protesters? You know that’s not going to happen.”

How about doing the onee of the jobs you are being paid to do and restore order for illegal protesting.
