From the article:
He attributed much of the dispute between City Hall and cops to issues “far beyond race relations in this city,” including unresolved labor contracts.
“We’re the tip of the iceberg at the moment. This is about the continuing poverty rates, the continuing growing disparity between the wealthy and the poor. It’s still about unemployment issues,” Bratton said. “There are so many national issues that have to be addressed that it isn’t just policing.”
No, Bratten. This is about De Blasio and you. This is about throwing NYPD under the bus. Morphing this into a social issue ain’t gonna work (that is southern for will not work). Trying to make the mayor’s issues a national issue is lame regardless of what the almighty rev al tells you.
And while I do not doubt there are many unresolved labor issues, the sea of backs was about 2 murdered officers of the NYPD and a mayor who never had their backs.

Absolutely right!!
Mr. De Blasio was the one who brought politics into the situation from the get-go.
Now, after Commissioner Bratton has shown himself to be a gutless toady, Comissioner Bratton and Mr. De Blasio should both Resign and let others represent and lead the City.
The repeated cowardly acts of Commissioner Bratton and Mr. De Blasio will lead to other attacks on police, firefighters and ambulance workers, and all the attacks will be the result of the lack of leadership of Commissioner Bratton and Mr. De Blasio.
This is not the end, it is not the beginning of the end of terror in New York City.
