Talk about learning all the wrong lessons.
A Brooklyn Law Professor, Alexis Hoag-Fordjour, claimed this week that police don't need to make routine traffic stops anymore.
From Fox News:
Brooklyn Law School professor Alexis Hoag-Fordjour said Monday that cops "do not need" to make routine traffic stops in response to the police death of 29-year-old Tyre Nichols, saying the solution to decrease police violence is to limit law enforcement's contact with the public.
"My really strong sentiment is that, to decrease violence between law enforcement officials and the public, is that decrease the contact and intervention that police have with the public," she told "CBS Mornings" hosts Tony Doukoupil and Gayle King.
"Police do not need to administer stops and basic traffic violations. I know all of us, I can confidently say, have engaged in a minor traffic violation," she added.
So, because EVERYONE violates traffic laws, then police should stop enforcing traffic laws.
I see no possible way this could go wrong.
Seriously, I hate getting pulled over for traffic violations as much as anyone. But to say that police don't need to enforce traffic laws at all?
