Albany Police Defy New York Governor and Refuse to Arrest Protesters



In Albany, New York, protesters are continuing to camp across the street from the New York State Capitol. On Sunday, local police refused to remove the protesters from the park in defiance of Gov. Andrew Cuomo and the city’s mayor. One police official said: "These people were not causing trouble. The bottom line is the police know policing, not the governor and not the mayor."


This is a stunning, astonishing statement for a police official to make. Can't think of any sooner way to become an ex-official, but, the police are SO correct here. Anyone wish to move to Albany?
