So about those mayors that we all thought were pretty socially enlightened guys. Is it that they were lying the whole time, or that they themselves are scared and are basically incapable of controlling their police forces? Trying to figure this one out.

Good question. It appears police unions and commissioners and huge $1billion budgets in LA have a lot to do with it.

What about all of those anti-government militia groups? Why are they not out helping protesters and protecting citizen rights? #Hypocrisy

The police are now in charge and asserting their authority through a violent national uprising against the citizenry.

Why do we keep beating about the bush. All cops are on the take or they are weeded out. It's a mafia. Now they are united to protect their kingdom and profits.

Scared - of the police unions- and secretly fear less traditional policing and fewer arrests more than excessive force

They're scared to death of the police unions.

DeBlasio and Cuomo are now over compensating for failure to stop looters in NYC a few nights ago. Now the police are at times attacking innocent protesters, journalists and essential workers on delivery bikes, etc...

They were lying. I know a guy though who really is what he says he is and he actually started as a brilliant mayor.
