“We are all worried for our safety. We are all on edge and being very careful.” said Dallas Polce Chief David Brown at a Monday press conference following the deadly shooting that took the lives of 5 Dallas Police officers Thursday night.
Saying he was “running on fumes,” Brown spoke frankly about everything that his employees have to deal with on a daily basis – and that it can be overwhelming at times.
“We’re asking cops to do too much in this country” said Brown.
“Every societal failure, we put it off on the cops to solve” said Brown. He listed mental health, drug addiction, loose dogs, failing schools as problems the public expects ‘cops to solve.’

His comments did not indicate in any shape or form the need for a Federal Force.
Nice job spreading propaganda.

I haven't heard a soldier yet get on TV and say "we are worried about our safety". Because it's the job they signed up for.
Cops want to wear soldier uniforms, drive soldier vehicles, carry soldier guns. Maybe they should buck up and start doing soldier $%#&.
When a cop is the only guy in the room with a gun he is John Wayne, when the other guy has a gun too suddenly he becomes Princess Diana.
Demilitarize the police as they are not being trained correctly and are starting to see the "citizens" as the "opposing force".

It's called "reading between the lines". One would have to be a total fool to not understand exactly what is happening with the disarmament narrative in this country.
A fool, or complicit in the agenda. Perhaps both.

LOL
Of *course* not on the surface.
Strange he made these comments after Obama was whaling about police "reforms" just last Friday.
Wake up professor.
