2 NYPD cops shot dead ‘execution style’ as ‘revenge’ for Garner
New York Post ^ | 12/20/2014 | Larry Celona, Kevin Fasick and Jamie Schram

Two uniformed NYPD officers were shot dead Saturday afternoon as they sat in their marked police car on a Brooklyn street corner — in what investigators believe was a crazed gunman’s execution-style mission to avenge Eric Garner and Michael Brown.

“It’s an execution,” one law enforcement source said of the 3 p.m. shooting of the two officers, whose names were being withheld pending family notification of their deaths.

The tragic heroes were working overtime as part of an anti-terrorism drill when they were shot point-blank in their heads by the lone gunman, who approached them on foot from the sidewalk at the corner of Myrtle and Tompkins avenues in Bed-Stuy.

“I’m Putting Wings on Pigs Today,” a person believed to be the gunman wrote on Instagram in a message posted just three hours before the officers were shot through their front passenger window.

“They Take 1 Of Ours … Let’s Take 2 of Theirs,” the post continued, signing off with, “This May Be My Final Post.”

Be delighted to friend you, but you cannot accept friends either.

It is a pleasure to meet a man of color that is conservative. You go against so many political norms and face so much BS, that it would have been easier for you to drink the Koolaid. In short, it is much tougher for you to be a conservative than for white guys like me. Mad props and respect.

I haven’t been able to read anywhere what the race of the officers were. Does anyone know?

“Police lives matter.”

They do, but not anymore than anyone else’s life... And I would include in that the 50 million plus babies murdered.

If you like your police, you will be able to keep your police. Period.

If you like your law and order, you will be able to keep your law and order. Period.

No one will take them away. No matter what.

Liberals on Twitter are “Disgusted” by the “Ignorant racism” of the hashtag “NYPDLivesMatter”.

They know this will destroy the last several months of lib propaganda, unless they stomp it out, and change the narrative NOW.

AMEN and don’t forget Mayor DeBlasio

Rush Limbaugh nailed it a few weeks ago.

New York state, back to the taxes here, New York state imposes a tax of $4.35 a pack. That's the highest of any state. That's on top of the local New York City tax of a buck sixty, which is also the highest of any city. The mayor, de Blasio, had just ordered the police to crack down on illegal cigarettes a few weeks before the Garner incident. He did that.

De Blasio is running around (imitating de Blasio), "What happened? This is outrageous. Look at all this excessive force." Well, yeah, that's what you tax collectors -- somebody had to mandate. I'm not suggesting somebody told the cops go out and kill these people, but it's just so out of proportion. It is so out of proportion. And I'm telling you, everywhere you look where some of this stuff is happening, inexplicable stuff, who's running the show? It turns out wherever you turn, liberals are running the show.

Now, the media has skipped over some details about Garner's arrest. The police were sent to arrest Garner because local minority-owned businesses were complaining he was driving business away and that he was competing with businesses that sold cigarettes by selling illegal, untaxed cigarettes one at a time, loosies, so the cops were called. A second fact that the media is conveniently ignoring is it was a black precinct chief who ordered the police to arrest Garner, and a third fact is the arresting police team was under the supervision of a black female police sergeant.

Yes. If both white, then this was definitely racial...if either officer was black, then it was more a strike against the police department...yeah, it does matter...

.......I sure hope this doesn’t happen as the cops ARE the thin blue line of protection for hundreds of thousands of old people, single moms and so on in NY.

I also think that many, many NY cops are conscientious enough that they would show up no matter what.

I remember going to NYC as a Texas born and bred kid of 18 and encountering “those big friendly white guy cops”. Seemed every one of them was 6’ 4” to me back then.

Former New York City Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik told Newsmax that
http://www.Newsmax.com/Newsfront/kerik-police-killings-nypd/2014/12/20/id/614261/#ixzz3MUEObOjr

Saturday’s execution-style shooting of two uniformed police officers was ultimately encouraged by Mayor Bill De Blasio and the Rev. Al Sharpton — and “they have blood on their hands.”

“De Blasio, Sharpton and all those who encouraged this anti-cop, racist mentality all have blood on their hands,” he said. “They have blood on their hands.”
