Wait.... They got hit.... With snowballs.... During.... A.... Fucking.... SNOWBALL FIGHT?????
OH the humanity!!!!
Snowballed during a snowball fight? Violins against the police getting out of hand
Yeah, in any other country I'm not sure this would even be a news story.
Why are NYPD such baby diapers? Can’t they toughen up and not always be such whiny bags of shit?
The police as a whole seem to be infiltrated with these conflationist retro-intellectuals. This 'baby-crying' is an attempt to double down on ignoring their institutions own self inflicted lack of respect. Through constant racism, extrajudicial murders, and rampant abuse of citizens exercising constitutionally protected rights. Cry about it nypd. Maybe in the future quit being fascist pigs? EARN respect, don't try to demand it.
Whoever called the cops to a friendly snow ball fight needs to be kicked in the groin. Hard.
Should have just joined in instead, you stupid donut eaters.
It's Washington Square Park, it's possible that nobody called them - cops are just normally around there.
Fun police here! Looks like youre all having to many funs per hour.
The article says that they were responding to a call about a snowball fight.
There's nothing in the article about a call though.
That's why I figured they probably were just walking their normal beat and ran across the snowball fight but hell if I know. It's just, there's so much shit going on all the time I doubt the NYPD would even dispatch cops to a call about a snowball fight.
Usually they just will be a part of it, it sounds like maybe there were some people being a little too aggressive or violent towards the cops but I mean also ACAB so maybe the cops are just being butthurt.
Honestly of all the places I've visited or lived I felt like the NYPD were the most professional and helpful cops. Which is pretty sad but the bar is real low.
My bad, apparently the word "responded" was all that stuck in my head from the first paragraph and my stupid brain incorrectly filled the blanks.
Police: "we don't understand why the public hates us"
Reality:
They didn’t disclose any information on additional injuries because “I got cowd and wet and I didn’t wike it!” isn’t actually an “injury.”
Obviously they melting, melting, such a cruel world
You would think these snowflakes would be at home in a snowball fight.
Some of those snowballs should have had some rocks or pee in them.
Honestly this isn't super newsworthy. The crowd wasn't all that bad, and most of the cops handled it fine.
Here's the most complete recording of the event that I found:
I think it's newsworthy because crybaby pigs are launching an investigation because of a harmless snowball fight.
Yeah, that's fair, an investigation is a little silly. Political points to be gained I suppose.
