>they should fucking quit.

They are. They are currently short 1300 officers. Your solution to crime is that 1000 more should quit? How will that work out for the hardest-hit communities?

Reply to Penn students face disciplinary hearings for campus protests by dotcom-jillionaire

"Students like Bortman and Elsakhawi say that the university staff has used multiple tactics to 'harass' and intimidate students."

"Protesters have posted on social media that at least one university official was holding a decibel meter at a recent rally. Students believe the official was using the meter to see if the rally exceeded 85 decibels, which Penn deems an “unreasonable noise level” at which a rally can potentially be shut down."

That's not really harassment, is it? Measuring the decibel level to see if exceeds the allowed limits? These kids would have been awful in the Civil Right marches in the '60s when dogs and fire hoses were used, and people went to prison for their convictions.

"Vanore said that police were led to Bivins by a receipt found in the stolen Ford Explorer allegedly used as the getaway vehicle. The receipt was for ammunition that Bivins had purchased in a South Philadelphia gun shop, he said."
