I'm upset that we're not seeing teargas disperse crowds and batons subduing criminals.
Putting undue risk on LEOs with these soft ass rules of engagement. The second the police make contact and meet resistance (after proper warning had been given) both of those tactics need to be in motion.
Law enforcement in the cities where the violent protest are taking place have been hamstrung by local DAs, city policy, state policy and public opinion.
In the 2020 violent riots in Austin, Garza indicted about 20 officers, put them through he'll for a couple of years only to drop the charges. They also paid millions in sum to protedtors who were injured in the response to the protest.
Many liberal cities have taken away the baton, the fire hose, the tear gas, the pepper spray. Officers are putting their careers and necks on the line to respond to these little petulant rioters.
