NYPD’s Tisch ‘Revolted’ by Idea of US Troops on NYC Streets

The NYPD commissioner, Dermot Shea, has expressed his strong opposition to the idea of deploying US troops on the streets of New York City. Shea stated that he is "revolted" by the prospect of President Trump sending the National Guard to urban areas, including the nation's largest city. The commissioner's comments come amid ongoing protests across the United States following the death of George Floyd. While the president has threatened to use the military to quell the demonstrations, Shea has made it clear that he does not support this course of action in New York City. The NYPD has been responsible for maintaining order and public safety in the city, and the commissioner believes that this responsibility should remain with the local police force. The article highlights the tension between federal and local authorities over the appropriate response to the protests and the use of military force in urban areas.
