De Blasio: NYPD Who Turned Backs Were Disrespectful

Monday, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said police officers who turned their backs on him during the funeral services for two murdered NYPD officers were disrespectful to the mourning families and the people of New York City.

Mayor de Blasio said, “Those individuals who took certain actions this last week, or last two weeks, really, they were disrespectful to the families involved. That’s the bottom line. They were disrespectful to the families who had lost their loved ones. And I can’t understand why anyone would do such a thing in a context like that. I think it just defies a lot of what we all feel is the right and decent thing to do when you’re dealing with a family in pain. I also feel they were disrespectful to the people of this city.”

“At a time when I think the people of this city felt tremendous respect for the NYPD, some individuals, some individual officers showed disrespect to the families and the people of this city,” he added.

DeBlahzero is trying to make it about dissing the families,
Keep avoiding the issue tall fraud and get no resolution.
Try saying this big Bill. ‘I regret some of my prior statements have caused some controversy with the NYPD and I’m sorry. Let’s now work together going forward to serve the people of NYC”. That would at least stop the bleeding guaranteed.

Bill de Blasio: communist in his youth; America hater, liberal, democrat, denounces American values, believes police use excessive force and violence, also wants America transformed.

Get Bill de Blasio out of office.

And announcing that he believed his son to be in danger from the police just because of the color of his skin—that’s not disrespectful?

“........NYPD officers were disrespectful to the mourning families and the people of New York City”.........

Note to De Blasio: No you jackass, they were directing their actions at YOU.

Two NYPD plainclothes officers shot in the Bronx Monday Night.

CNN report spends a minute on the robbery then the rest of their report on how the police disrespected Herr Wilhelm at the funeral Sunday.

The pistol recovered at the robbery scene appears to be a blue steel, six-inch western styled six-shooter revolver

NBC

The unidentified officers were taken to St. Barnabas Hospital where they are in critical but stable condition. Both officers are expected to recover, the NYPD said.

The officers, who were in plain clothes, were part of a group of five cops who were responding to a call about a robbery at a grocery store on East 180th Street in the Bronx, Police Commissioner Bill Bratton said. The officers were approaching two suspects who had just entered a nearby restaurant when one of the suspects opened fire, Bratton said. The officers returned fire and two of them were wounded.

For he cannot serve both the city and Sharpton. For he will hate one and serve the other.
NYC should spew him out of office.

Huffington Post calls the cops “insolent” for turning their backs. No talk of insolence for looters and anarchists.

It was astounding to see Bratton at the presser----practically prostrate, all puckered up, sucking up to Blabbio---vitrolically bashing cops.

Is Blabbio buying Bratton's loyalty? Let's connect the dots.

<><> Blabbio recently announced he "showed his support" for cops by giving Bratton $132 million;

<><> the city's procurement bulletin notes that Bratton's close pal is getting a cushy no-bid deal from the NYPD. Read on.

NY POST REPORT EXCERPT---The NYPD is poised to issue a no-bid contract to a pal of Commissioner Bratton.......the deal with Strategic Policy Partnerships is to fulfill Bratton and Mayor de Blasio’s mandate to fix community policing in the wake of the Eric Garner case.

The contract subsidizes training for high-ranking police officers to mend community relations and enhances cadet training.... according to City Record, the official publication for NYC procurements.

The no-bid firm is headed by Bratton friend, Robert Wasserman, onetime partner in The Bratton Group--a L/E consulting firm Bratton ran before taking NYPD’s top job last January....the two pals raked in more than $53,000 on a contract with the Baltimore Police Dept in 2013.....and as L/E consultants in Oakland, Calif, where Bratton earned $125,000.

Wasserman founded Strategic Policy Partnerships in Feb 2012. He served as a consultant (a) during Bratton's tenure as LA's police chief 2002-2009, and, (b) when Bratton was NYPD commissioner in 1994 (under Giuliani).

Wasserman's more recent contract entitled, "the transition of the Bratton administration in 2014” was funded by the n/p "Police Foundation..."

But the new no-bid deal will be financed by taxpayers.

===============================================

That whining sound you hear is Bratton saying: "What's my cut?"

"Bill de Blasio was a fervent supporter of the Marxist Sandinista government in Nicaragua in the 1980′s, a government that was backed by the Communist Soviet Union and Cuba."

This is how screwed up the country is. We have one man considered evil and a criminal who supplied the rebels with weapons to overthrow the Sandinista commies and Ortega (Lt. Col Oliver North) and we have another man who was in love with the Sandinista commies is the mayor of New York (De Blasio)...

Comrade DeBlasé must have a short memory span. He ran his campaign for mayor in part on an anti-police platform. What does he expect, respect?

And New Yorkers deserve what they voted for. Socialism and communism always sound so good to these liberals in theory, on paper. But then when they have to actually live under these systems, they squeal like whiney little pigs. Why would anybody in their right mind want to live in this f**cked-up-in the-head-city, chocked full of liberals? Not me.

These people are either out of touch with reality or are tying to manipulate the public. They repeatedly refer to “some” officers as if there is a tiny minority showing “disrespect.” Photos show a large number of officers turning their backs with “some” not. Bratton: “The country’s consciousness has focused on an act of disrespect shown by a fraction of those…officers.” Bratton: “At the same time it is reflective of the feeling of some of our officers at this juncture.” “Some?” The photograph of the officers showed that the entire assembly had turned their backs. De Blasio: “At a time when I think the people of this city felt tremendous respect for the NYPD, some individuals, some individual officers showed disrespect to the families and the people of this city,”

If it were just a small number the harpies wouldn’t have spewed so much outraged venom about it, so it must have been stunning.
