Seems odd to me too. A danger to police alert sent to my phone helps how? I guess to run and hide because the cops are going to be trigger happy?

I was wondering that myself, I'm not sure what the utility is here. Kind of almost seems like a "Look how dangerous our job is!" kind of thing than anything that would actually help people.

I was thinking about ladies who got shot at over 100 times and the guy who got his truck smashed in and shot at during the Christopher Dorner rampage a few years back

I can see it being useful for big emergencies when civillians need to stay away from an area (though such situations get plastered on the news anyway), but is it going to be used for more everyday stuff? The line "when there is an imminent credible threat to an officer" seems somewhat vague to me and could be applied to being in the middle of a shootout or confronting a suspect, possibly right before they shoot.

Interetsing. So.. they just compared  big bad cops to itty bitty children. That is sad.,  Talk about being insulting to police. if there is a danger to cops iin area can't they just reach them on their radios? COME ON.

I liked the cops trying to excuse that as 'Well we were frightened'. Kind of funny to see shaven headed, rayban wearing badass types make such a claim.

Russia practicing for an invasion of Europe: https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/5177666/russia-military-drills-invasion-europe-vladimir-putin/

 

This isn't as big a deal as it sounds like. Military drills and exercises routinely mimic action in actual places. A few years ago under the Obama admin they were practicing an invasion of Texas during a "civil war". a much bigger seal was made of that than probably should have been.

I'm not sure about the trees, but that comment section sure brought out the racists! :p

 

The comments section on a news article: if you have any faith in humanity remaining, that is where you lose it!

Planting a row of trees does seem like some petty crap racists would do. Just ditch the chain link fence, those can't be anything but eyesores.

Sadly, there are alws that can be used by the gov't to   abuse/take over private property because all gov'ts are evil.

 

Also, those comments seem to eb erased but no doubt there are scum posting racist things. Still, it is also laughable that trees can be considered 'racist'.

 

I thought the goal was to protect trees... but now we're being told trees are evil tools of white supremists and must be cut down. WUT!?!

Who owns the land? Not the golf course I presume since the city is just flatly calling the shots? Would have been interesting if it was private property and they tried that.

Golf is city owned, it says

Surprised that street name lasted so long, Swastika Trail sounds like some documentary on neo nazis.
