SFPD issues new guidelines for ICE arrests amid protests
Story by Megan Cassidy • 7h

As volatile high-profile clashes between federal immigration agents and protesters erupt on city streets, San Francisco police have issued new guidelines on how to navigate their role as peacekeepers in a sanctuary city.

In a department-wide memo Wednesday, Interim Police Chief Paul Yep instructed his officers to neither help nor hinder U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents as they make immigration arrests, and to only take action when "necessary to safeguard life and property."
 
"This may include rendering aid, responding to criminal activity, continuous observation and reassessment, maintaining a perimeter, directing traffic, de-escalating conflict or communicating with the public," the guidelines said.

The notice didn't create new policies, but drew from existing ones to  offer a roadmap on how to respond to the problems that have arisen from clashes.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The way the headline was worded I thought it was guidelines for arresting ICE officers.  Accidental, I'm sure. :whistle:
