NYPD Chief Wants 450 Cops to Combat ISIS
Weekly Standard ^ | May 18, 2015 | Daniel Halper

New York City police chief Bill Bratton is worried about ISIS. So worried, in fact, that he's going to assign 450 New York Police Department cops to fight terrororism that may come from the Islamic State.

“We need to be very concerned about terrorism … The significantly increased threat from ISIS using social media to recruit people not only to go to Syria to fight, but encouraging people … to attack police, to attack government officials, to basically brainwash them under their screwed-up ideology. That threat has expanded significantly in the now 16 months I’ve been police commissioner,” Bratton said on the John Catsimatidis radio show.

that should be enough to hold back ISIS in the outlying areas.

NYC itself ....may well end up a lost cause.

Im thinking that de blasio.....may be the real reason hes allegedly asking for the extra cops to begin with.

I dont think it has anything to do with isis...I think its meant as a slap in the face for the racist Mayor

If they just import 20 million more from the Mideast, the government can hire a million more cops.

Government will be able to turn the U.S. into one big fat police state, build more prison camps, hire more cops, raise taxes....

And raise taxes again....Just to keep up safe.

Obama has no right nor power to order any police department to not investigate terrorists, gang members or any other criminal enterprise.

If Obama thinks a non-Federal police entity is violating the civil rights of a targeted group, he has the power to get the Justice Department to gather evidence and file a law suit.

Government brings in more and more Muslims and others from very dangerous questionable countries then government tells us they must now hire many more cops and raise taxes to keep us us safe.

What sick game.

It’s the, “Grow government and raise taxes” game, where the only winner is government.
