De Blasio’s fateful anti-cop slander
NY Daily News ^ | 01/01/2015 | HEATHER MAC DONALD

Posted on 01/02/2015 8:58:24 AM PST by Kid Shelleen

---snip-- Since those cop murders, de Blasio has been furiously back-pedaling. He called the NYPD the “greatest and finest police department on this Earth” at the Police Academy graduation on Monday, and said that “it takes a special kind of person to put their lives on the line for others.”

But as long as de Blasio’s earlier claims hang out there unretracted, the overcompensation is simply insulting. Both propositions cannot be true: Dante cannot be in daily “danger” from the NYPD because of his skin color, while at the same time the NYPD is the finest police department on Earth.

deBlah-Blah’s mind is still made up. Pure verbal posturing, no change of policy.

I like that you kept it authentic by leaving the word mispelled.

If I were a cop in NY city I would not arrest anyone. Let them all walk. Every call you get, take your time getting there. Then say, well there is no evidence he beat the ever loving hell out of you except those brutal cuts and the bleeding. That is not sufficient evidence for me to arrest this nice young thug. Have a nice day. Then walk away. I’d spend more time stuck in traffic than getting to calls.

When the assMayor speaks to his son about being careful when interacting with the NYPD he ISN’T talking about the majority of minority cops on the force, rather, he is warning about the WHITE minority of cops.

Radio host Don Imus (of all people) hit on this point in an interview he had with William Bratton a few weeks ago. This was after the grand jury's decision not to indict the police officers in the Garner case, but before the assassination of the two police officers in Brooklyn.

Their conversation went something like this (I'm paraphrasing here):

BRATTON: "In the aftermath of the Garner incident we're going to be re-training every police officer in the NYPD."

IMUS: "What exactly did the police on the scene in the Garner case do wrong?"

BRATTON: "I'm not going to sit here and speculate about anything, or even to suggest that the police did anything wrong."

IMUS: "Then why are you having all of the police re-trained?"

Bratton had no answer to that question, and as I was listening to the radio that morning I envisioned him sitting somewhere with the phone in one hand and his in the other, asking himself: "What the hell am I supposed to say now?!"

These people are all full of crap.

Bratton used to be respected. He sold out to this low life. I don’t blame a good guy for taking the job, hoping to help his department survive a mayor like him, but I DO blame him for standing with the mayor now.
Bratton has no integrity.

Bratton looks almost as bad as deBlasio in this whole affair. He's engaging in classic bureaucratic CYA behavior, kissing up and cra—ing down.

Well at the Seattle protests at least half of the “I can’t breathe” signs were mispelled by leaving the “E” off the end.

My favorite was “Black people cant breath in AmeriKKKa”
