Let’s see how this plays out. I’m guessing the local LEO would be arrested for obstruction.

If one has the stones to try…. Probably just pandering.

quote:

Denver Democratic Mayor Mike Johnston announced an executive order Thursday directing city authorities to detain an ICE agent considered to have used excessive force against or who "assaults or shoots or kills" civilians in the Mile High City.

The announcement comes weeks after Philadelphia’s top prosecutor made headlines by likening ICE agents to Adolf Hitler’s Geheime Staatspolizei and warning of similar repercussions that have yet to be put into practice, as Johnston’s now have. "To protect Denver, our first responders will always provide life-saving aid to anyone who is injured, no matter who injured them," Johnston said on the steps of the city government’s plaza downtown.

"No ICE officer gets to stand in our way of saving someone's life. To protect Denver, if we see any ICE officer using excessive force against a Denver resident, we will step in to detain that officer and remove them from the situation," Johnston said, adding federal agents should be held to the same standard as city police officers.


Edit: this easy to say if you issue stand-down orders and your PD never go near ICE.

Mike Johnson is Denver’s mayor, not the Colorado governor

ETA: I see you fixed your title

I'm sure that local LEO's don't have to follow illegal orders.

The police union should come out strongly against.

I’m sure the line is long of Denver police officers wanting some of that action. Federal prison anyone?

It just occurred to me. All it takes is one.

What if this is a dog whistle for a martyr?

Would be a Dem wet dream headline. “Denver PD murdered by ICE for defending Denver citizens.”

Sounds like he's trying to take away ice's ability to defend themselves.

We all know the police will always be ordered to stand down and not interfere with the cultists who target ice agents.

So this seems like a childish way of saying "if you don't allow yourselves to be freely attacked, then get out of our city."

If we learned anything from Covid, cops won't think twice about enforcing any law.

That's slightly subjective.
