Bloomberg said Tuesday that also applies to potential backlash against Muslim New Yorkers.

The mayor said there are "a few bad apples" among any groups. He also cited New York's long history of accepting cultures from the around the world.

“7 yrs with GWB mostly quiet and “peaceful,” and then comes this Arab-American(?) fraud at the helm all hell breaks loose!”

You have a short memory.

I work in NYC. Last night, my train was evacuated because of an unattended bag.

My hat goes off to the NYPD and the MTA police. They have a very difficult job.

Last week, police arrested a ‘student’ who was walking along the subway tracks near Wall Street carrying cyanide pellets and flares with no ID. Bloomberg said nothing about this little incident.

This schmuck does not even listen to his own words.

He told us it was 40 year old white man who was upset about 0bama healthcare.

That sounds like BIAS by Bloomburg to me.

Appeasement worked really well for Chamberlain. Bloomberg knows it will work just as well for him. New York will be asleep at the switch again. Remember Pearl Harbor...

Excuse me Mr. Mayor, but as I recall you tolerated bias against those folks in the WTC that trusted you to protect them.

Bloomberg is the biased bastard:

“Now consider Michael Bloomberg. He glibly announces on the CBS Evening News that if forced to bet on who had left the bomb in Time Square he’d bet on the terrorist being “Homegrown, or maybe a mentally deranged person, or somebody with a political agenda that doesn’t like the health care bill or something.” Homegrown, mentally deranged, doesn’t like the healthcare bill: These are the three best guesses of the mayor who works a few minutes from ground zero could come up with. To which I say, stick it up your memory hole Mayor.”

So I guess since 9/11 all of these Islamic terrorists were very PEACEFUL until Hussein got into the Whitey House out of respect for Bush, right? Or could the fact that so many of these nuts were killed, investigated or watched during the Bush years have anything to do with it?

Mayor Bloomberg, get rid of your bias toward Americans and New Yorkers. That would be a good start before you tell other people about their biases.

You’re absolutely right, these idiot’s blame the Tea Party right off the bat then it ends up being some rag head and they immediately start feeling sorry for him because he couldn’t or wouldn’t make his house payments wahhhhhh!
You know the ones who are seditious are the @ssholes like him who are flagrantly taking the side of terrorists over Americans.
Same with the illegal immigrants, when an army invades your country they’re suppose to be driven out but instead our damn Governments sends them a taxi and invitation to stay.
What a bunch of idiots!

Hey, bad apples I can deal with—they don’t blow people up. It’s not even an apt metaphor.

Bloomberg is so dang full of himself it is impossible for me to understand anyone takes him serious any more.

Wasn’t he a “timer” on Wall Street like former NJ governor clown Corzine? In other words, his chief skill was having a fast “enter” key finger.

New York has been a sanctuary city under four Mayors already (Koch, Dinkins, Giuliani, Bloomberg). Illegals are tolerated here because they do their jobs quietly and go home to neighborhoods like Corona or East Tremont which are far from the core areas of Manhattan and western Brooklyn. There is no “anti-illegal” groundswell here the way there is in Arizona because of the above reasons.

>> Bloomberg says New York City “will not tolerate any bias”

There’s more than one way to say the innocent should not be persecuted for the actions of criminals and terrorists. Bloomberg seems to prefer the more pointed, presumptuous language.

The usual liberal mantras. I’d love to hear something original. Isn’t Bloomie late for a Ramadan dinner?
