It is not maligning the police to say that they are subordinate to elected officials. Thats how it is in a democracy. If soldiers of a countrys army, en masse, refused to carry out the lawful, constitutional orders of a duly elected government, we would rightly see that as a step toward overthrowing democracy, a military coup. When police officers, en masse, refuse to enforce the laws enacted by a duly elected government, when they seek to blackmail the population by saying, in effect, nice city you got here, itd be a shame if anything happened to it, they are rejecting the right of citizens to choose their own leaders. That is something the people of New York City cannot accept.
