A comment was left on this article in which I agree--- "I guess anything less than the mayor throwing a celebration party for Eric Garners killer is disrespectful to the NYPD from their perspective. This level of insubordination and disrespect would not be tolerated in the military and it shouldn't be tolerated here."
Who the hell do these guys think they are. Those who show little respect should expect little in return. These guys may not agree with everything the mayor says, but he sure as hell didn't throw them under the bus as same claim. Neither did he give people in the street a green light to put open season on shooting cops that they should act like this. There are far too many good cops in New York that will blamed for what these bad apples are doing.
Sure sometimes protestors act like assholes, but that doesn't excuse law enforcement becoming one of them. I expect better from them. Fellow cops jobs and their safety depend on people showing respect for them.. So too they in return need demonstrate the same respect for the rule of law & order they've sworn to uphold as an example to them. Acting this way demonstrates a belief somehow that this is a wartime "we against them" situation and somehow this justifies their actions. This is so Wrong!
No one.. not anyone of reasonable mind disagrees that cops shouldn't be murdered. Certainly not this mayor. How does any of this improve relations?
Yeah sure two cops got whacked. So did dozens of other New Yorkers this past year. Who's making a fuss about these innocent individuals who've been taken away from their families at the hands of criminal murderers? Who weeps and carries on this way? Is a cop's life more important then any other's?
If cops and the news media carried on this way for every innocent person who got murdered this year in New York their families would be stunned. Enough already. I'm sorry this happened but enough of this bullshit already!
