Berkeley Bans Police-Conducted Traffic Stops, Will Send in Unarmed Civilians ......

[MMC]

Berkeley, California has approved a plan that prohibits police officers from conducting traffics stops. The plan, proposed by the mayor and approved in a virtual city council meeting early Wednesday morning, is just one part of a major "defund the police" overhaul planned by the city, Fox News reported.


The move to separate traffic enforcement from police work is believed to be the first of its kind in the U.S, according to the report. Instead of having trained officers conducting traffic stops, the new policy will send in unarmed civilian city workers to deal with traffic offenders.


Police unions for Los Angeles, San Jose and San Francisco said in a joint statement that serious violations –such as speeding, reckless driving, and driving under the influence – are dangerous offenses and confronting violators can be dangerous work best handled by sworn officers.

Oh this will be good. Once a few of the leftists get shot in their face. They will beg the police to go back to making the stops. That is when the Cops should tell them. Oh no.....you dipshits deal with it.

Speeders, drunk or impaired drivers, no tags, all traffic infractions will have free reign under this plan. What happens when Deputy Dawg tries to stop a speeder and he says "Stick it" and just keeps going? Will they be empowered to chase them down even though they have no specific training in high speed chases?

Why bother stopping for a civilian?

The Bangers will luv driving thru Berkeley. Hopefully the Lame Stream Media will get footage of the leftists getting shot in the face or ran over.

Quite a loopy idea.

Lol it will end like when the shooter in another country went on a rampage and most cops stayed in their cars because they didn't have guns.

Traffic stops are one of the biggest ways in which cases get made. Take this tool away and law enforcement is further handicapped.

So, will these unarmed civil service workers be in Police cars? If your not in a Police car, why would anyone stop for you. Are we talking about people like Parking enforcement officers that some cities have who are uniformed but not sworn officers, what do they think of the idea?

Who cares. Get out and clock them. They have no authority. You don't have to stop for a security guard in a store either. They have no authority over you. Cops do.
