City Councilmember Caban on NYPD's controversial social media posts

The NYPD is under fire for controversial social media posts by the department's top brass.

1 - Not defending the NYPD for reasons I will not get into but keeping this simple, if a agency like the NYPD cannot engage in political speech, then neither can anyone working for government including her. 2 - Use of combat language like 'attacking' and 'fight' invalidate whatever is being discussed. This is not combat, it is a discussion and argument, nothing more. Use of such language is actually one of the causes of problems today. 3 - Almost 250 years and some people in this city still talk and act like the New York colonial legislature. New York colonial attitude and behavior is still alive and well even among non-white and non-male.

you think a cop who enforces the law and runs their twitter should be allowed to insult one of their bosses on political grounds? so what about active military undermining the "commander in chief"? should be fine to make a trusted military right?

@@gregoryallen0001 Having served in the Army, there are times you want obedience but there are also times when soldiers need to be heard on certain issues that actually explain part of why it failed in recent activities. I also find it disturbing that political types are allowed to spread misinformation from all sides without restriction while other government workers have to be silent.

my friend tho the big difference is the job of a politician is to tell a story, persuade the public, and win. the job of a cop is simple, and does not include on-duty commentary about laws which is not their department: they follow orders and enforce laws. big difference in what it means for those two to USE THEIR POSITION to apply political prsssure

@@gregoryallen0001 So you want blind obedience no matter what the law says. Police do have their problems but blind obedience is not the answer to anything.

Recall Caban and vote these democrats out of office.

They are all garbage the councils not only her

So she dosent hate people but hates police ok I get it.

Vote out the pro-criminal NY Assembly and NYC Council. This whole interview is her spewing BS and shows most of the NYC Council can't take fair criticism. And if you criticize them they'll do these stupid hearings make themselves the victim and villainize you. Tiffany Caban is a big advocate for bail reform she's the reason a repeat offender went to strangulate and assault a woman in the Bronx.

Liberals- I can say, accuse,, and incite racist tension! But don't ever call us out about it

[@Triple10101]

I don't hate people but the people of Queens New York need to be a shame of voting for this person..

[@LaEscuelaDelEncanto]

Happy to see the NYC Council on YT. We can now make our own opinion of them

[@kevinjulia2852]

She's upset because they call her out being law enforcement hater.

[@8365jm]

So she dosent hate people but never said anything about not hating the police ok i see her bias😒

[@maddieharr7211]

Do not agree with her views on the NYPD

[@beckinfidelis3916]

4:21 WOW! Caban is a horrible person. "I don't know if you know this..." 🙄🙄🤡 She's talking about a civil trial, doesn't require real evidence. When did any civil trial against the police rule against family members? Jurors vote based on feelings and emotions, not evidence. Especially in these trials to pay compensation to the family members.

[@beckinfidelis3916]

0:58 She asks like 10 questions in a row with a one second pause, she doesn't want to give him time to answer. She's not really asking questions, she's pushing a repetitive narrative! Stop asking them how they "feel" about it! She knows they are not free to discuss this issue during an active "investigation" or should I say "waste of taxpayer resources and time"! THIS is how they spend our money acting like bigshots and authoritarians!? The social media post is not controversial it's actually hilarious and TRUE!
