Have police lost the ability to control the streets?
- chadp 16y agoIf they can't control and protect private property from a group of ravers, how are they going to protect the public and property from real criminals?
- dasht 16y agoIt comes down to how widespread this kind of thing becomes (and the worse the economy, the more likely to be widespread). This is a bit like 1968 and around then: global, largely youth-based actions. Police can respond to isolated incidents but not to lots of them at once or all around the same time. A novel twist this time around is how many municipalities are meanwhile firing cops because of the lousy economy.
