WASHINGTON -- Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) blamed this weekend's killing of two NYPD officers on anti-police "propaganda," for which he said President Barack Obama bears some responsibility.
"We've had four months of propaganda, starting with the president, that everybody should hate the police," said Giuliani during an appearance on "Fox News Sunday." "I don't care how you want to describe it -- that's what those protests are all about."
Giuliani cited the nationwide protests against institutional racism and police brutality that followed the deaths of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and Eric Garner in New York, and that flared up anew after the respective grand jury decisions not to indict the officers responsible in either case. Giuliani said those demonstrations, and the ongoing criticism of police tactics and the criminal justice system, were part of what led to the shooting of two NYPD officers in Brooklyn on Saturday afternoon. Police say the alleged shooter, Ismaaiyl Brinsley, traveled to New York from Baltimore with the intention of killing police officers.

He would have been a double edge sword for conservatives (really wrong on social issues and damn wrong on gun control), but your statement is probably right looking back at the history.
There are lots of good cops out there who just want to do the job right and go home to their families. (We all know about the bad ones, but this isn’t about them.) The media who give a platform to the handsupdontshooticantbreathe morons have blood on their hands, as does New York’s commie mayor.
That’s excellent.
“May I suggest using your nightstick, Officer?”

Would have been light years better than Obama. Better than Romney or McCain too. Not such a high bar ref any of our leaders these days.
“Rudy, warts and all, would have been a much better POTUS than anyone the Republicans have nominated since Reagan.”
Agree entirely.
People in Ferguson did this throughout the protests there...I really find them more than disgusting...they are anti-american and need to be removed from this country to where they can cut loose for the animals they are...actually animals are better.
I love Jaden... I know what its like to lose a father... the scum who celebrate the murder of a good man have deprived a son of his father.
They stand as guilty as the murderer who shed the blood because their words made it possible in the first place.
I have nothing but contempt for them. They are beyond pity.
0bama started this ‘Hate the Cops, America is Racist’ campaign in 2009 when he said the Boston police “acted stupidly.”
Yep, that's precisely where it all began.
0bama is the driving force behind using four incidents with no racial components to reopen and inflame a racial divide in this country like nothing that has existed before.
Leftists and Muslims are the people who worked together to get Obama illegally placed into our White House. And now we’re seeing Obama carry out what both of those lifelong allies committed crimes to enable him to do for them.
Rudy’s speaking the truth.
Bingo, Rudy is spot on!
