Protesters are gathering in City Hall Park in NYC, and they are refusing to leave until law enforcement is no more.
It would seem these protesters believe if funding for the police is cut crime will stop.

So get rid of the commissioner and the police and crime will stop.
Right.

Protesters vow not to leave until their demands are met – thinking they MAY be there awhile if they really think law enforcement will be abolished. Call us crazy.
