One thing not mentioned is that the selling of untaxed cigarettes on the streets of NYC is a major source of funding for jihadi organizations such as hamass and hezbolly. Not saying Garner got his cigs from them but to let it go is to fund the enemy.

If I were in the police department of every big city, I would avoid policing the dangerous neighborhoods. I would tell all of those neighborhoods to start policing themselves. Let’s see how long these people would last, before they start crying for “POLICE PROTECTION”. I would also mandate it, that every time one of these thugs from those neighborhoods, that decide that the “PICKINGS” would be easier in those neighborhoods that are well policed, that they’ll get a dose of their own medicine. But to rape and pillage their neighborhoods, that’s okay by me. I would also advice every businessman or woman in those neighborhoods, to arm themselves, or leave those neighborhoods.

They should “get lost” on EVERY call to “communities of color”. If they don’t want to be policed let them have their way. If they would rather have 10 young blacks killed by other blacks than have a white cop stop it that’s fine with me. F’em, you can join civilized society and be afforded its benefits or you can go Shaka Zulu on each other to your heart’s content.

Police officers don’t have to go off duty to protect themselves, they just have to wear civilian clothes and not drive police cars.

Before the two NYPD policemen were murdered in their police car, the purpose of making the police visible in bad neighborhoods was to deter crime. However, conditions have changed completely after the shooting, since it was police visibility that actually attracted a murderer to kill the policemen.

So, now the NYPD’s crime-fighting tactics must also change completely. Officers must now go undercover. But will they do that?

In the current atmosphere of anti-police protests, the spectacle of uniformed officers careening around cities in big flashy police cars is a sign of madness.

I’m just wondering about the enthusiasm of the the Praetorian Police Guard assigned to Comrade Mayor .... think they will overlook minor crimes like assassination attempts on the Comrade Mayor, or bullying of his semi-black child who fears the cops, or pimps and prostitutes plying their trade outside his mansion?

“I’m not writing any summonses. Do you think I’m going to stand there so someone can shoot me or hit me in the head with an ax?” One cop said Sunday, referring to the Dec. 20 slayings and another recent attack on the NYPD.

Ahhhh! But you'll keep taking that paycheck, won't you, officer?

“I’m concerned about my safety,” the cop added. “I want to go to home to my wife and kids.”

But you also want to keep that SWEET paycheck & pension, don't you? Otherwise, you'd quit.

I can imagine telling my supervisor: "Well, I've decided to stop pounding nails, because someone might throw something at me while my head is down, and I'm focused on my work."

"Don't forget payday is this Friday, boss!"

Predictably, the thin blue line in NYC just became quite porous because of de Blasio.

Minor crimes like.........selling loose cigarettes? What a good idea. The guy would be alive today.

Some will bristle at the assertion but it is factual. It is also one of the reasons why those "officials" who keep inciting violence against cops will soon be trying to find ways to back-track; loss of revenue is something they really hate.

I can’t help myself but feel the 70’s nostalgia overwhelming me:

Ooh
It’s so good, it’s so good
It’s so good, it’s so good
It’s so good
Ooh
Heaven knows, heaven knows
Heaven knows, heaven knows
Heaven knows
Ooh
I feel love, I feel love
I feel love, I feel love
I feel love

I feel love, I feel love, I feel love

As I mentioned in other posts this is more than the Left that is destroying NYC but the Paulite extreme libertarian philosophy applied to an urban society that does not have the social capital to make it work. That is why I am more of a conservative. I do not believe in one size fits all solutions whether from the Left or the Paulite libertarians.

Never let the government unionize against you.

Funny how many "conservatives" support union work slow downs, eh?

Mayors come and go, but the police/firemen/teachers/nurses/parks and services unions will have total control in time, and city politics largely determine state politics.

A lot of these guys aren’t thinking about who the cops are, and what this display of armed liberal political power, over elected liberal political power will lead to, already the cops have decided to double the costs of answering calls.

It’s certainly a possibility.

That said, there isn't any place I'd rather be in such a time.
