There’s an unhealthy amount of cop worship among opponents of pandemic tyranny, so it’s important to remember that police are the armed agents of the State. They do what they’re told to ensure they receive a paycheck. They will not risk that paycheck in order to defend or protect your rights if they are commanded to do otherwise. Just as we seek to place severe limits on the power of government, we must do the same to the police. Wishing to do so doesn’t make someone “anti-cop”, it is merely a consistent defense of liberty itself.
The police officers said they were not there to arrest people, so apparently they are also there for no other reason than to give Cuomo's unlawful mandates 'the color of law.' This is a waste of resources & the kind of antics you see in banana republic, not in the United States.
