The whole team resigned in response to the 2 members who were suspended in the incident pushing the elderly man to the sidewalk.
I guess more news will come out as this evolves. But in my opinion, if they all feel like that, good riddance. Law enforcement has gone too far.

R8, of course bull shit character assassination will only make us hate the police more.
It doesn’t matter what his back ground was, it has no bearing on why the police man sat on his neck and killed him.
Furthermore, the policeman himself had a number of accusations against him. That’s more relevant here

[quote]The union chief vowed that his organization would help the cop accused of killing Floyd, now-fired Officer Derek Chauvin, and three other officers who were at the scene and are being investigated.
This is why Unions need to go. They protect the bad workers, in every profession. I don’t understand why Democrats don’t get this.

Two of the officers now say that they didn't resign from the response team in solidarity - they only did it because the Union wouldn't legally back them.
The officers we spoke with said the Buffalo Police Benevolent Association’s statement asserting all 57 officers resigned from ERT in a "show of support” with the two officers that were suspended without pay is not true.
“I don’t understand why the union said it’s a thing of solidarity. I think it sends the wrong message that ‘we’re backing our own’ and that’s not the case,” said one officer with whom we spoke.
“We quit because our union said [they] aren’t legally backing us anymore. So why would we stand on a line for the City with no legal backing if something [were to] happen? Has nothing to do with us supporting,” said another.
“The City, DA Flynn, they’re not representing those guys at all. They have to find their own lawyers, they have to come out of pocket.”

They didn’t resign from the police force, they just resigned from the stormtrooper militarized group.

They resigned because if they were later sued for brutality, they would not get representation through their jobs.
