The police didn't give in, they realized the current approach wasn't working and things were about to get heavy. Sometimes you have to take a step back, take a breath and change your approach.

spence, what would
you say to residents and business owners who like having cops around, and who are still paying taxes? do they matter at all to you?
You could say the same thing about people affected in cities all across the country. It certainly wouldn't make me happy but this a societal issue and unfortunately the most important person in the discussion has checked out because he's not capable of leadership.
