Your talking about their discretionary powers and that’s not going to be relevant on a protest enforcement action where their senior officer in command will have laid out exactly what the criteria to arrest is.

They can literally not do it…
Cops have an insane amount of power because they can just not do their job whenever they feel like it

I doubt it’s that easy. There will be disciplinary systems. And if they quit, I’m sure the govt will find people with fewer morals to take their place.

How can they discipline you for not seeing something? Also, no one is saying to quit. They should keep working, but just become blind to these “criminals.”

Sort of like a police strike for better conditions for the public.
