USA - The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) tweeted a release Tuesday advising city residents to “cooperate and comply” when being robbed. LAPD then uses the release to outline seven points conveying the department’s advice for what city residents ought to do in response to the robberies. Point five on the release says, “If you are being robbed, do not resist the robbery suspects; cooperate and comply with their demands. Be a good witness.” California is one of the most stringently gun-controlled states in the Union. In spite of all the gun and ammunition controls, Los Angeles is seeing “an increase in violent street robberies.”
