US Presidential candidate, Donald Trump has come out to suggest that allowing the police to be extraordinarily rough for an hour would end crime in the country.
He recently had his say during a rally in Erie, Pennsylvania, and the world has been reacting.
According to him, one real and nasty day by the cops would put an immediate stop to criminality in the United States, so the police should be allowed to do their jobs without restrictions.
Trump added that US police have gone soft because they fear that they will lose their pension if they use so much force.
His words, “We have to let the police do their job. And if they have to be, extraordinarily rough.
And you know, the funny thing with all of that stuff, look at the department stores… you see these guys walking out with air conditioners, with refrigerators on their back. The craziest thing.
And the police aren’t allowed to do their job. They’re told if you do anything, you’re gonna lose your pension, you’re gonna lose your family, your house, your car.
You know, if you had one day, like one real rough, nasty day… One rough hour, and I mean real rough, the word will get out and it will end immediately. End immediately. You know, it’ll end immediately.”
WOW.
