New York police union tells Mayor Blasio he is BANNED from funerals of cops killed on duty - after he told officers they had to change in the wake of Garner chokehold death
The Patrolmen's Benevolent Association posted a form on its website Allowed members to sign a letter barring the mayor and City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito from their service Say it's because of their 'consistent refusal' to show officers respect Goes on to add that their attendance would be considered an 'insult' De Blasio prompted anger last week when he said his black son Dante should be 'wary' when dealing with the police A New York police union has told Bill de Blasio to stay away from funerals of cops killed in the line of duty.
The Patrolmen's Benevolent Association posted a form on its website that members could download and sign, barring the mayor and City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito from their service.
It simply reads: 'As a New York City police officer, (I) request that Mayor Bill de Blasio and City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito refrain from attending my funeral services.' The letter then goes on to state that their 'consistent refusal to show police officers the support and respect they deserve' would mean their attendance is an 'insult'.
The mayor and the speaker released a joint statement condemning the move.
According to the Daily News, the pair said: This is deeply disappointing. Incendiary rhetoric like this serves only to divide the city, and New Yorkers reject these tactics.

“Just wait until the NYC police start turning the other cheek to minor and petty crimes to make a point....”
Better still have all of them walk off the job and see how the morons who voted Commie get along without them!
Blasio is the latest example of what happens when almost no one votes. A sixteen percent voter turnout means a Marxist lunatic can assume office.
Elections have consequences and Americans seem to have a great propensity of voting for the wrong persons.
I’d like to hear de Blasio say, “listen, cops, I’m the ******* mayor of this ******* city and I’ll ******* go anywhere I ******* please, including to your ******* funerals!!!”

Thanks for the ping.
Hopefully the NY Cops will eventually be the force that rides him out of town on a rail.
