Good job in an attempt to frame this as pulling resources away from "fighting crime", to protect the council members.

They wouldnt need the extra security if the threats werent real.

Yes. And the threats come from the crime committed by the illegals they insist on sheltering and coddling here. They need their police to protect them from the people they're giving defacto sanctuary to.

Ordinary citizens of MoCo are on their own though, they don't have their own police force to guard them.

You are beyond dense. Why would illegals threaten lawmakers who are passing pro-undocumented immigration policies? What friggin sense does that make?
If you had a lick of sense you would be able to put 2 and 2 together and realize that the “councilmembers are said to be genuinely scared because of online threats they have received” FROM HYSTERICAL MOCO RESIDENTS LIKE YOURSELF.

Yeah taking four patrol officers from a district's shift doesn't cause any problems.

Threats against council members cause problems too.

I'd like to see some evidence that there have been credible threats against the current council. The current council does totally suck though.

The police decided they were credible. What do you know that the police don't know?

If you really believe this, you are stupid.

If you are just spreading lies, you are a jerk.

The police work overtime. volunteer or mandatory. Districts don’t go uncovered.

You need to look no further than the protest a couple weeks ago at the council building to see where the "threat" came from.

County councilmembers didn't realize there were so many of the constituents who were upset with their shenanigans.


And also worth noting- its plain to see in the photos and video from that day who the police thought was the ACTUAL threat that day, between the protesters, and the counter protesters (allied with the council). All of the police perimeter was facing the counter protesters. Because that's where they knew any trouble would come from. They had their backs to the people protesting the council. The cops knew those people weren't a threat.

But the council sees an opportunity for some cheesy political theater, and they wont be denied that.

I can't wait until the first crime isn't responded to in a timely manner because the cop that should've been on the scene first was busy making sure that no one asked Tom Hucker anything that made him feel uncomfortable.

No, they don’t. Go do a ride along and learn how they cover their beats. Ask them what happens when fellow officers are on leave or call out sick unexpectedly. It is no different.

Do you think I'd say they have shifts that go uncovered if I didn't know it for certain?

I "rode along" for 12 years as the husband of a cop. You'll never BS me.

The police are doing what the acting chief tells them to do.

Again, please cite examples of these credible threats you spoke of.
