NYPD Dispatches 1,000 Cops To Stop New Yorkers From Barbecuing On Saturday

Monahan said the NYPD would have bike teams and mounted units on horseback throughout the parks, as well as aviation units working to spot "problem areas" (i.e. the Jews in Brooklyn and New Yorkers across the 5 boroughs who rush to gather an impromptu barbecue on a nice day).

But wait wait... I've been told that not all cops are "bad" cops. In fact, over 99% of them are "good" cops. There is NO WAY that any of the NYPD will really issue tickets to people barbecuing...

If you’re hunting your private property and someone is there that isn’t supposed to be and doesn’t have permission then they could be accidentally shot.

That’s why I hunt specific areas. So nobody gets hurt. It’s crazy to think they could be sneaking around hunting areas unannounced. That’s just stupid.

So why is there a ruling saying cops don't have to protect anyone but themselves while they ride around in cars that say "to protect and serve"?

My local police slogan is "an honor to serve, a duty to protect"

It’s a matter of imposing the cost upon the city.

Liability theory and the allocation of cost is about to become a big deal in the wake of COViD-19. Would be an interesting subject for law review articles.

Did you pay any attention to the Signal Mountain murder cases when they were going on in Chattanooga?

I know or knew the people involved.
I was once threatened by the murderer while on a 4 wheeler.
So yes I am aware of that psycho.

What I’m saying is, it’s a great fear of mine to accidentally shoot someone while hunting. It’s not good to sneak around private property where people are hunting. Especially if they’re not in orange......which they never are.

Yeah there was a lot more to that story than the example you gave, but it was what popped in my head.

I can't remember if I told the story here or not, but I remember sitting in Perry County court to get a speeding ticket reduced and I heard a very interesting case while I was waiting for my case to come up. This guy was accused of having a feeder too close to his tree stand or just having a feeder in general... I can't remember the details because I'm not a hunter and it was over 15 years ago. But anyways, the guy came to court along with the game warden that charged him and that guy made a pretty compelling and convincing case in his defense. The strength of his defense was based on the location of where the feeder was located and he had evidence to support his case and the game warden's own testimony fell in line with the guy's story. Boy, when that judge hit the gavel and called that guy guilty, that entire courtroom audience was grumbling and shaking their heads. Everybody sitting in attendance disagreed with how that got resolved.

I learned 2 lessons that day. Poor white folks get f#$ked with just like black folks and that game wardens are nothing to screw with.

As soon as the lady opened the door, the cop said, "Hello, Amy..." So they knew her name. Yet, why the nonsense at the end about needing her name? Plus, they are at her house, so they have ways of getting her name. Which they proved at the very end. F&&kin cops...

I have to hand it to that lady, I would’ve shut that conversation down in about 15 seconds and told them to get the F off my property.

Criminals are going to criminal.

Maybe if they took out all of the people in jail for surfing, barbecuing, smoking reefer and speeding they could have room for the thieves and thugs.

They have room for thieves and thugs, the politicians won't let them keep them in jail.
And I'm sure the jails are simply overran with people arrested for surfing :rolleyes:

The cops don't seem like they mind following orders to enforce beach or outdoor gathering prohibitions.

again, a HANDFUL of cops...how many of these arrests for violating orders have you seen in Knoxville?

Sometimes, in liberal big cities, they have no choice because their supervisor orders them to. That's why most people choose not to work in law enforcement in those places

Honestly, I think it would have happened with the Knoxville City Police had it not caused an initial uproar and the County Sheriff had to speak out against the practice without publicly throwing the city under the bus.
Someone in law enforcement was pulling people over and questioning where they were heading and trying to determine if they had a “legit” reason to be driving around.

Not in KPD or Knox County.. There were reports circulating that someone was doing that, but when it was investigated, it appeared to be "fake" police trying to scam people.

But i do agree i wouldn't put it past our Mayor to try and force officers to do something like that, but there is no one going to be doing that in this area. This isn't California, no matter how much the 4th and Gill crowd/UT Professors/Lib Mayor want it to be
