China Hires NYPD to Advise on Repressing Protests
The New York Police Department has signed a lucrative contract with the Chinese government to provide training and expertise on successfully cracking down on peaceful protests by brutalizing protesters.
According to the $10-million contract, NYPD officers will travel to Beijing and train Chinese police on the best methods for quickly repressing political, social and economic protests against the government and rounding up protesters for arrest with minimal media attention.
NYPD advisers will place particular emphasis on how the Chinese police can handle any potential gatherings marking the upcoming 25th anniversary of the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests, in which the military brutally suppressed pro-democracy activists.
Authorities in China -- where freedoms of speech and assembly are restricted -- said they were impressed with the NYPD’s reputation for serving the wealthy and privileged while using excessive force to break up peaceful protests, most notably Occupy Wall Street, and convicting the protesters in kangaroo courts.
"The way the NYPD handled that Cecily McMillan case was wonderful," says Bo Xi Peng, chief of police for Beijing. "Seven years in prison because she stopped a cop from groping her breast. I wish we could get that kind of conviction here in China. They're the best in the business."
