Oh great, let's eliminate the ability for the law abiding to 
communicate with each other, and to assist law enforcement
with tips, not to mention the need to contact emergency
services, in the name of "Security".

*Some/Most* implementations of ACCOLC allow/require communications
to "911" style services in addition to those designated as "special".

From the sound bite, I did not get to determine if this is what
the NYPD wants, but it might make some sense (at least from
their point of view).
