New York Won’t Name Street After Cop to Avoid Offending Muslims

--snip-- A plan to honor a Harlem cop killed by Nation of Islam radicals is drowning under a flood of racial tensions created more than four decades ago, but no one wants to throw it a lifeline — not even the NYPD’s new top cop.

Police Commissioner Bill Bratton is distancing himself from the controversial push to get the street in front of the 28th Precinct renamed in honor of Officer Phillip Cardillo, who was shot and killed inside a mosque run by Louis Farrakhan in 1972 — noting that the community should make the final decision.

I bet they could name the street “mohammedan way” and make it a one way street with no problem!

I don’t get it. NOI has nothing to do with Islam.

If Muslims aren’t offended, something isn’t being done right.

If they’re worried about offending cop-killing Muslims then anyone can take their lunch money.

What’s the problem?

Does ‘street’ have some sacred mooslime meaning?

I’d name it Charles “the hammer” Martel street and watch with barely disguised glee as all the mohhamedans heads imploded from rage.

If I were king, I’d send out questionnaires to every Muslim in the country asking what offends them - and then implement each item.

Must be Cardillo was a 'white hispanic'. Thanks Kid Shelleen.

Well, I’m offended that they call their houses of worship a mosque instead of what it really is - an armory.

A muslim was elected and re-elected president. The opinion polls show that everyone who checked “muslim” was “incorrect”. How your “opinion” is incorrect, I’ll never know.

So, what else could we expect?

Its not just “muslims” who are offended. The sad truth is that in some communities cop killers are more popular than cops.
