This is an insult, even if they can't understand why

A point I made over the last few years about Anthony Weiner and his run for NY City mayor was of all the candidates, he still sucked the least. And having a photo sex addict as your best choice tells you something about how badly New York has fallen.

Now we come to the current HIZONOEDAMAER, Bill de Blasio. It's bad enough he's a out and out socialist and he's screwed up the assertive law enforcement of his two predecessors, he insulted the men of the NYPD. You can argue if the officers handed Eric Garner right or if the grand jury made a poor decision, but to come out and say:
“Chirlane and I have had to talk to Dante (the mayor's 17 year old bi-racial son) for years about the dangers that he may face – good young man, law abiding young man, never would think to do anything wrong, and yet because of the history that still hangs over us, the dangers he may face. We’ve had to literally train him, as families have all over this city for decades, in how to take special care in any encounter he has with the police officers who are there to protect him,”
The numbers are that there will be a cop funeral in de Blasio's term and this will be interesting if the fallen officer has completed this form.

Cops tell de Blasio: Stay away from our funerals

Not over their dead bodies.

Cops are warning Mayor de Blasio and Council Speaker Melissa ​Mark-​Viverito to stay away from their funerals should they be ​killed in the line of duty.

The Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association distributed a flier to members, blaring: “DON’T LET THEM INSULT YOUR SACRIFICE!” Cops were encouraged to sign and submit the “Don’t Insult My Sacrifice” waiver to ban the cop-bashing pols from their funerals.

“I, as a New York City police officer, request that Mayor Bill de Blasio and City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito refrain from attending my funeral services in the event that I am killed in the line of duty,” the waiver states.

“Due to Mayor de Blasio and Speaker Mark-Viverito’s consistent refusal to show police officers the support and respect they deserve, I believe that their attendance at the funeral of a fallen New York City police officer is an insult to that officer’s memory and sacrifice.”...

The mayor traditionally attends funerals for fallen officers.

“This is deeply disappointing,” the mayor and the council speaker said in a joint statement.

“Incendiary rhetoric like this serves only to divide the city, and New Yorkers reject these tactics.

“The mayor and the speaker both know better than to think this inappropriate stunt represents the views of the majority of police officers and their families.”

Sources say the revolt was sparked by the mayor’s lack of support for the NYPD following the grand jury’s decision not to indict the officer involved in the death of Staten Islander Eric Garner.

De Blasio added fuel to that fire in a press conference about the grand-jury vote where he said he had warned his 17-year-old, mixed-race son, Dante, to be careful around police officers.

“We’ve had to literally train him, as families have all over this city for decades, in how to take special care in any encounter he has with the police officers who are there to protect him,” the mayor said.

PBA President Patrick Lynch reacted to that by accusing the mayor of throwing cops “under the bus.”...

You know Bill (obviously you don't) you could have risen above the "community organizers" (excuse me while I snicker) and soothed the population of your city. Explained to them how the legal system works and called for calm, but that takes something you don't have and never will. You are not a leader, never have been. So you rubbed salt into the wound and now the cops are pushing back. You really don't care, we know that, but one thing you should be cognizant of. The officers you just insulted guard you and your family at Gracie Mansion. It's not nice to imply they are incompetent or worse. To use your words, "I’ve had to worry over the years. Chirlane’s had to worry. Is Dante safe each night? There are so many families in this city who feel that each and every night. Is my child safe?...Are they safe from the very people they want to have faith in as their protectors?”

Sleep well de Commio under the guard of men and women who on their worse days are better than you. NYPD, good move.
