| ‘Every City Is Preparing For It’: Here’s What Police Are Doing Ahead Of Possible Election Unrest |

Miami, Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis, Orlando, Chicago and other major cities have also reported prepping for possible violence, according to Fox News. Slocumb also indicated that law enforcement agencies can establish arrangements with surrounding departments, known as mutual aid, to establish contingency plans if more officers are needed to supplement a certain city’s police force. Those same authorities are likely to begin talks with local trauma centers and their respective fire departments, he said. The union official, however, insisted that the department’s response is contingent on the “marching orders” given by Democratic New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s administration. Vallelong said previous decisions by de Blasio during earlier racial justice riots proved to be ineffective. “I know what should be done, but it’s gonna be a matter of what are the marching orders that are going to be given from city hall when all of this happens,” he said. “We know from the past with watching what we saw — they let everybody run loose and pretty much destroy everything in the city.” Vallelong also said the NYPD is struggling with a lack of officers, as the department experienced a 75% surge in retirements compared to 2019, according to Newsday. Additionally, Yonkers, Westchester, and other New York agencies pledged to refuse to enter the city following a police reform bill that banned chokeholds and other methods of restraints, NBC New York reported. “If it gets that bad and the NYPD can’t handle it, I don’t know of a bigger police department out there that could come and save them,” Vallelong said. “At that point you’re talking about the National Guard.” |

| #6 Those businesses boarding up are smart. If Trump wins it may save their business from rioting from the leftists. If Biden wins they can just leave it boarded up and go out of business permanently. |

| #3 Thank G_d, pursuant to common law (as recognized in both federal and state laws), that the Sheriffs all across the USA only answer to the PEOPLE who elected them, and do not have to kowtow to any state official, including governors, and are coequal in authority with federal agencies — superseding the federal agencies in the areas of their (typically county) local jurisdiction. I hope they are all locked and loaded. And, while I still think sharpshooters should be posted to quell insurrection and to protect life, a kinder and more effective approach would be to douse all these malcontents with generous portions of Israeli skunk water.
