A Manhattan NYPD lieutenant sent an email to his fellow officers apologizing for kneeling alongside George Floyd protesters late last month telling them that the cop in me wants to kick my own ass.
In a June 3 email obtained by The Post Thursday, Lt. Robert Cattani of the Midtown South Precinct said he regrets his horrible decision to give into a crowd of protesters demands and kneel at Foley Square in Lower Manhattan, with several other cops.
The conditions prior to the decision to take a knee were very difficult as we were put center stage with the entire crowd chanting, Cattani wrote. I know I made the wrong decision. We didnt know how the protesters would have reacted if we didnt and were attempting to reduce any extra violence.

That being said, within seemingly 24 hours or so after it showed up on the Tee Vee, dumb White liberals turned this fine gesture of solidarity into one of supplication or boot-licking. Soooooooo, if I'm at an event at which kneeling is asked, I shall say:
The Left:
Thank you. I can never remember where I left that.
I am an imperfect man. You perfect people can go ahead and hate.
They should make that idiots life so horrible he quits.
Repent and come join us, or, continue to be a bad man, and very, very bad man.
It’s also what Warren Wilhelm needs to do as well.
But I’m not holding my breath.
Given that the problem was a cop kneeling, I don’t know why the demonstrators wanted cops to kneel.

You’re mentally weak, Cattani.
Exactly.
Can any of us imagine being so wishy washy that we don’t know from one day or one moment to the next what we truly believe or where we stand on issues? That’s called “courage of your convictions.” We trust our friends but if they did that, we’d never trust them again. I do not have any respect for anyone who gives in to mobs and then turns around and apologizes for their stance or statements - no matter the issue. Just more of the garbage we are seeing every day and it’s sickening!
Kind of like the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs - “I should not have been there.” Is that the way a career military officer makes decisions? Disgusting!
There are still too many holdovers from obozo’s time in office - he got rid of the good officers, kept all the sleeze bags. President Trump needs to do a thorough cleaning at the Pentagon.
The real question is whether the officers under his command will TRUST him any more? If not, he’s shifted or gone.
Well said, Mao or Stalin.
Mao could not have said that better!
You mean ethical people can do the Left’s shame game, too? I guess that is because they are without sin and can reach out and strangle a man’s soul... They don’t have to forgive because they are so perfect...like Maoists or the Black Lives Matter leaders.
If he is ashamed, let him commit Seppuku. If he doesn’t do that he isn’t ashamed. He is a liar. And a violator of the oath he swore.
‘Kill yourself’
Really, D-bag? A man makes a mistake, a poor decision, then has the guts to publicly admit his error, risking backlash from a corrupt city government and you want him dead?
You’re an asshole.
