What basis do the police have for removing PPE that people are handing out at a polling site? What are they shutting down next? Lemonade stands?
On the first day of early voting in Red Hook, @NYPD76Pct officers confronted community activists handing out PPE in front of an early polling site & then seized it. This is unacceptable, the NYPD must issue clear guidelines & not escalate situations at the polls.

Let me just state. There was absolutely no point in stealing those PPE’s. A PPE is neither democratic or republican. Is there to help save human lives. Again. There was absolutely no point in removing those PPE’s...other than assisting in suppressing their own community voters.

How is this not just theft!? Having a badge/gun doesn't mean you can just rob people of their property.
