Police depts withdraw from security agreements for 2020 DNC convention

At least 100 law enforcement agencies have withdrawn agreements to send personnel to next month's Democratic National Convention, some of them citing orders to Milwaukee's police chief to cease the use of tear gas and pepper spray during demonstrations.
The withdrawals cast doubt on a program to bring about 1,000 police officers from outside agencies to help shore up security for the event, scheduled for the week of Aug 17. Among the agencies confirmed to have withdrawn are police departments in Fond du Lac, Franklin, Greendale and West Allis.
Asked on Monday if the agreements were collapsing, Fond du Lac Police Chief William Lamb said, "Yes," adding that he expects other agencies from across the state to withdraw from the program.
"We regret having to do that," said Lamb, who chairs the Wisconsin Police Executive Group, which consists of police chiefs from cities with populations of more than 20,000 people.

Trump speaks about this in Ohio--Video set to this reminder
This is where we are at...
Police told they can't do their jobs. Democrats despise police this badly.
The dems cancelled this citing Covid they don't want this in the news...

The Democrats wanted no part of that mob. While it's their mob doing their bidding, the DNC has no control over it. The last thing they want is a complete shite show at their convention on national television.

I think the overall point is that the DNC thought they could dictate to the police they couldn't use pepper spray or tear gas.

The Dems thought they could have a halfassed convention and that it wouldn’t devolve into the 1968 Dem convention.
The cops said “Yeah, go play a game of ‘Hide and go frick yourself.’l
