NEW YORK Mayor Bill de Blasio, his administration threatened to be overwhelmed by a rift with rank-and-file New York Police Department officers, on Monday condemned the thousands of cops who turned their backs to him during a pair of funerals for slain police officers.
In his first public remarks on the officers' protests, de Blasio said the cops' searing rebuke was hurtful to the families of the two officers killed in an ambush last month and was an offense to the city at large.
"Those individuals who took certain actions the last two weeks, they were disrespectful to the families involved. That's the bottom line," de Blasio said at a news conference held at police headquarters. "I can't understand why anyone would do such a thing in the context like that."

Wilhelm/deBlasio is a lifelong marxist/communist and his parents were "fellow travelers", thus making him a red diaper baby. Good reference article linked below, be sure to read it:
She looks like a bag lady.
Like I said, he’s German and pretends.
LOWER CRIME RATE? Better look again----no doubt Bratton relied on the scam he used when he Commissioned under Giuliani: manipulate the stats--refigure the way crimes are reported....eliminate some crimes from the statistics.
==============================================
Big Bird clearly lied about the purpose of the presser.....the whole point was to assemble the press corps as a sounding board.....so ego-driven Big Bird could whine about cops turning their backs on him.
Bratton was clearly coached to attack cops---as the way to massage Birdman's bruised ego.
Blabbio's knee-deep in bird doo---and the "Progressive genius" still hasn't figured how to get out of it----except by bashing cops.
===================================================
It was astounding to see Bratton at the presser----practically prostrate, all puckered up, sucking up to Blabbio--- vitrolically bashing cops.
Is Blabbio buying Bratton's loyalty? Let's connect the dots.
<><> Blabbio recently announced he "showed his support" for cops by giving Bratton $132 million;
<><> the city's procurement bulletin notes that Bratton's close pal is getting a cushy no-bid deal from the NYPD. Read on.
NY POST REPORT EXCERPT---The NYPD is poised to issue a no-bid contract to a pal of Commissioner Bratton.......the deal with Strategic Policy Partnerships is to fulfill Bratton and Mayor de Blasios mandate to fix community policing in the wake of the Eric Garner case.
The contract subsidizes training for high-ranking police officers to mend community relations and enhances cadet training.... according to City Record, the official publication for NYC procurements.
The no-bid firm is headed by Bratton friend, Robert Wasserman, onetime partner in The Bratton Group--a L/E consulting firm Bratton ran before taking NYPDs top job last January....the two pals raked in more than $53,000 on a contract with the Baltimore Police Dept in 2013.....and as L/E consultants in Oakland, Calif, where Bratton earned $125,000.
Wasserman founded Strategic Policy Partnerships in Feb 2012. He served as a consultant (a) during Bratton's tenure as LA's police chief 2002-2009, and, (b) when Bratton was NYPD commissioner in 1994 (under Giuliani).
Wasserman's more recent contract entitled, "the transition of the Bratton administration in 2014 was funded by the n/p "Police Foundation..."
But the new no-bid deal will be financed by taxpayers.
===============================================
That whining sound you hear is Bratton saying: "What's my cut?"
In fact, news reports say Commissioner Bratton was forced to caution DeBlobbio not to bring his wife to the crucial meeting recently held w/ five cop union reps.
DE BLOBBIO'S WIFE
RESUME ENHANCEMENT PROGRESSIVE-STYLE During DeBlobbio's campaign, his wife Chirlane I. McCray was billed as a writer, poet, editor, communications professional, and political figure who published poetry and worked in politics for the Clintons.
THE REAL STORY
Mrs DeBlobbio loudly declared her lesbianism in a magazine article---she was in a black feminist lesbian group and wrote poetry about being a lesbian. Politicker noted her husband's campaign website doesn't reference her background as an avowed lesbian and a lesbian activist or lesbian poet: It notes her affiliation with the Combahee River Collective, omitting mention of the groups lesbian roots, referencing it as "a pioneering black feminist collective."
They met while both worked for Dinkins. She says she had a nose ring and wore African garb when he spotted her and was completely smitten. She never told him she was a lesbian. And later said after their marriage she was still attracted to women.
During the campaign, she was asked about her lesbian lifestyle----she retorted she "didn't understand the question."
The Blobbio's honeymooned in Communist Cuba. Musta been a shock on their wedding night when Blobbio came out of the shower in a towel. "You want to put what where," said the startled lesbian.
THE ODD COUPLE
DeBlobbio gave his wife control of "the multi-million dollar Mayor's Fund." .... no telling who shell be dishing it out to....prolly to finance her ambitions.......those who helped get them elected get a piece. Hillary is also waiting w/ her hand out.
Think money laundering...
The unelected lesbian even has a staff---two aides salaried @ half a million. NYC has enormous revenue flow. DeBlobbio (as do most Mayors) controls all of that revenue.
Two moochers living large off the taxpayers.
My gosh, Liz, from what you posted, as well as my link to the Discover the Network’s reference article on de Blasio, how the heck did this guy get elected as mayor of one of the largest cities in America? It seems that NYC citizens are either fellow travelers and find nothing wrong with de Blasio’s resume, or they’re willfully ignorant, or a combination of both! I live in Western NY and there’s many of us who want to secede from Downstate/NYC and separate ourselves from this madness!
Lies and more lies did the trick for this Commie.
Apparently blah, blah thinks it’s better to keep digging.
My take on that is ... her attendance was a last-minute decision. She was not supposed to attend .....probably uninvited at cops' request.
At the last minute, either she or DeBlobbio felt that rush of cop-hate.......so she was hustled out dressed just as she was.....to further exhibit their cop hatred.
Her presence has caused derision......so much so Bratton warned DeBlobbio NOT to bring her to the recent cop union confab.
The word is that she and Blobbio make public policy decisions together....no doubt, she was behind the catastrophic events that led to the cop-mayoral rift.
