Even as violent crime and deadly shootings in New York soar, Mayor Bill de Blasio has reportedly assigned no less than 27 cops working in shifts to protect a Black Lives Matter mural outside Trump Tower.
Even before the recent riots, major crime in New York City had soared by 22 per cent thanks to bail reforms that allowed suspects to avoid jail and re-offend.
Last month, it was reported that there had been 38 murders over the last 28 days up until June 14, twice as many as the previous year.
On Monday alone, 18 people were shot in 14 separate incidents. Six NYPD officers were also injured during clashes with protesters on the Brooklyn Bridge on Wednesday.
The city has already cut next year’s police budget by $1 billion, leading Houston lawyer Howard Steele to comment, “He is spending his reduced police budget on guarding his arts and crafts project instead of New York lives.”

Surprising that some peeps are not crapping on “The Mural”.
If I was called to protect that communist mural, I would call in sick or arrangement to have surgery done and take off for medical reasons!
Why does the mayor think he has the authority to punish individual police officers?
Are any of them from the anti-crime unit?
That would be the height of irony.
when they say mural they are not talking about that crap writing on the road are they?
It’s not a mural. Murals are on walls.
This man fully supports the violent revolutionary group called BLM, while pretending to be trying to save black lives.
stop using the language of the left, this is not a mural, it’s stenciled street graffiti. If this crap can be called a mural, every hopscotch diagram can also be called a mural.
His Honor (sic) doesn’t even qualify as a putz.
Why shouldn’t he? He don’t care for the people who elected him either. If tow of those who voted for him Monday are killed Monday, ten more will take their place Tuesday or when needed. The Democrats operate on never giving a sucker an even break. The people of New York City got exactly what they deserve and voted for. As will the United States of America when President Trump is gone.
Yellow block letters stenciled on the street is a “mural”?
Murus, -i; 2nd decl. - a wall
Outside of Trump Tower then may just be the safest place in NYC.
Winning.
It is ugly graffiti, not art nor a mural!
No sympathy for anyone but the cops in NYC. Karma is biotch.
New Yorkers are nuts.
/Vial/ would be more appropriate.
AEDIFICARE MURUM !!!
You get what the majority votes for.
That's more of a San Francisco treat.
