  1. Not surprised nor is it gonna stop with a meeting with the union… Best choice is DeBlasio resign, but I suspect he’ll be made to grovel and snivel to get the police back on the ticket train.

  2. This all started with DeBlasio’s refusal to appeal the ruling in the stop-and-frisk class action lawsuit against the NYPD and the city. The mayor’s response to the execution of two NYPD officers was the straw that broke the camels back. NY city is about to revert to the lawlessness prevalent before Giuliani became mayor. Amazing how much damage one far-left politician can do to a city in one year.

  3. Lawlessness started back in 2008 when Wall Street and fat bankers were allowed to steal people’s money without punishment. Why is anyone shocked it has now become a street level issue?? I guess as long as you are in a 3 piece suit and smell good it is ok to break the law. Or if in High River, it’s okay to break in to your home and steal but only if you are in a police uniform.
    As long as they allow rogue cops to stay on the force we should anticipate more of the same.

  4. That may have been one of the stupidest posts I’ve ever read on this blog.
    Wall Street equated to High River?
    Rogue cops being ALLOWED to stay on the force?
    Lawlessness started in 2008?
    Back to mom’s basement.

  5. Yes, it was stunningly stupid. And equating crimes against person with crimes against property as that poster does is equally stupid.
    More to the point, there’s a significant difference between police not laying charges and an actual increase in the crime rate. That the police are doing a de facto work-to-rule is certainly justified here. But what the linked piece does NOT show is the actual increase in crime.
    No doubt it has occurred, but until he can show by how much in some measure, the author’s headline claiming a crime wave in progress is without foundation.

  6. Wow, all the police’s reprisal has done is drop the revenues of the city. Down are: Traffic violations? Public urination (ewwwwwww)? Parking violations? Pot arrests? Oh dear, oh my, run for your lives.

  7. I wonder how much the city is losing in budgetary terms? Parking tickets and traffic fines are a large part of most municipal budgets.

  8. But revenues are what liberal/socialist politicians want. DeBlasio wanted police to crack down on people selling singles (cigarettes). They did. A guy died. So actions do cause reactions and have consequences. Liberal/socialist politicians and their minions don’t understand that because -like aizlynne – they’re very stupid.

  9. context ain’t a lefty strong point, never has been, never will be. As one study, that was linked to in here, showed, lefties a short on empathy. Thing I can’t figure out is why anyone would need a “study” to determine that, ‘cept to pilfer more taxpayer cash.

  10. From the article linked at the top of the story; “Sergeants Benevolent Association President Ed Mullins told The Post he’s glad de Blasio is meeting with the unions, but worries that it’s just a publicity stunt.”
    Of course it’s a publicity stunt that is all liberal/socialist politicians know. They have no morals, no sincere beliefs and no feelings for others. They are the ultimate narcissists.

  11. Yup – the drivel posted here only confirms my previous statement. Go back living under your rock.

  12. Perhaps it confirms it to you in your bubble, but that’s hardly an indication of anything…..other than you living in your bubble. Now put your Guy Fawkes mask back in the closet.

  13. I think you are missing the point. It is a pretty simple matter for the police to begin with not dealing with things like traffic violations, etc., and to move on to very slow response times (or no response at all) in areas of high crime. Then things get very tricky…..as has been seen in several cities in Europe.

  14. Well I am with the cops 100%. They are getting killed, wounded, and harassed in court – for doing their bloody jobs. If the brass are simply going to sacrifice the entire police department in the name of political correctness – this is what will happen.
    America’s blacks want a fight. The question is – do we give it to them, or keep trying to throw our cops under the bus and hope the blacks will grow up and behave?

  15. I will be very interested to see how this affects vehicle accident rates in the city. Not only mere accident rates but also if fatalities as a result of accidents rise. After all we are constantly told that these traffic laws protect us, keep us safer and reduce fatalities. Jeepers I hope someone, like insurance companies are keeping good track of it.

  16. Let this be a lesson to all the left wing turds in NYC.
    My niece is a big lib residing in Brooklyn (although a turd she is not). Maybe she will begin to see the light. I doubt it though.

  17. You’re the one living under a rock. You’re an idiot. Crime (violent crime) in NYC was cleaned up long before 2008. You are so stupid it makes me sad that your ilk even knows how to use a computer.
    This isn’t about bank fraud – which the Democrats didn’t stop considering they held the Senate and HofR in 2008. You see, being an idiot doesn’t get you far in real life. Educate yourself and then come back and converse with the adults.

  18. DeBlasio may not give a flying f*ck about two dead cops aka “low level government servants” but he sure will give a rat’s ass about lost revenue from charging the “little people” for misdemeanors!
    Hit him in the public pocket book, the universal language of Liberal psychopaths.

  19. aizlynne >
    “……when Wall Street and fat bankers were allowed to steal people’s money without punishment”.
    I can agree with that. My question is, why did the “police car pooping Occupier’s” stand in front of banks protesting when obviously the only means to affect change was at the Whitehouse?
    Why crickets at the Whitehouse gates?
    Something was not right with the picture, Obamba could have affected change with the stroke of another Executive Order. Obamba could have demanded that his Attorney General pursue charges and subsequent arrests against fraudulent bankers.
    So again why crickets at the Whitehouse gates?

  20. Not quite. Some of America’s blacks want a fight, typically a minority, and a small one at that. Just look at the out of town rent-a-mobs in Ferguson this fall. The black middle class wants nothing to do with the race baiters. Al Sharpton does NOT speak for all or even a majority of black Americans.
    But like you and most of us on this thread I too fully support the police. They too however have a difficult time here. It’s sometimes a fine line between letting petty misdemeanors slide by and allowing anarchy to prevail (as happens in a typical NY blackout). And if the latter happens, the cops will get the blame.

  21. Remember when the ndp were in power in Toronto. Lots of attacks on the police by government appointed people. All about black children being gunned down for no reason in the streets. The police force adopted a FIDO approach to black thugs on the street. F** It Drive On.

  22. If blacks want police respect, perhaps a good place to start is to stop committing the majority of the crimes. They won’t gain any ones respect through affirmative action. A novel approach to a serious problem, but I have yet to hear all the race baiters like Sharpton, Holder, Obama and other lefty loons throw that out there as a alternative to the gang banger life style. If the police are always suspicious and short on respect for young black males, perhaps there’s a good reason for that. Respect and disrespect are both earned. How many hundred years have to go by before they take responsibility for their own actions and stop blaming the past ? Reminds me of certain Indians, but that’s for another post.

  23. And De Blasio also claiming his half-black son was constantly harassed by the NYPD because of racial profiling while ignoring the chants of “What do we want? Dead COPS!” added to the cops’ justifiable anger.

  24. NYPD traffic tickets and summonses for minor offences have dropped off by a staggering 94 percent…
    A drop in the persecution of the masses for traffic tickets and minor offences do not make a crime wave as the linked story suggests. Hyperbole much.

  25. 9 x murder in Edmonton. Imagined the White Boys tutoring the Somalians in how to deal drugs but kids are involved so I’m not sure.

  26. Could all be intentional. 1) Regular police must be marginalized 2) while criminals are allowed to terrorize the population. 3) Homeland recruits brownshirts 4) who have access to several billion rounds of ammo.
    Law and order are re-established, but not liberty and freedom.

  27. Never a good Idea making the Police your enemy, particularly when your a Politician . They know your secrets like no one else including your wife. When Tourism falls in NYC from crime. He can take full blame for his own stupidity

  28. “…back in 2008 when Wall Street and fat bankers were allowed to steal people’s money without punishment.” Ummm..they did not steal anybody’s money. They do not have legal access to my bank account, our yours. That money was either taken from us by the federal government or borrowed by the federal government with a promise that we, the taxpayers, would pay it back on their behalf. Then the money was handed over to a mixture of financial institutions and corporations. By the Democrat controlled House, Senate, and White house. With no strings attached. So where should your rage be focused?

  29. The “brownshirts” are the “protesters” in the streets. They are the agents of the Democrat Party…..the fascists of America

  30. I’d have more sympathy, but this is New York City we’re talking about here.
    This is the place that David Dinkins ran into the ground so bad it almost went bankrupt, but people said he was a “good man”. Record unemployment, record street crime, open warfare in the streets, crack epidemic, absolutely rampant police corruption… but Liberals loved him. The New York Slimes loved him, everybody loved him.
    This is the place that Rudy Giuliani brought back from the precipice and cleaned up, starting with the most corrupt police department on the eastern seaboard. He also pretty much -ended- street crime in most of the city, just by making the cops he hadn’t fired arrest guys for doing obvious, stupid crimes.
    New Yorkers never shut up about what a Nazi Giuliani was.
    So I’m inclined to get me some popcorn and enjoy the show watching both sides lose. Maybe we will get lucky and an asteroid will come.

  31. When all is said and done, Bill De Blasio will do more damage to New York than Osama bin Laden did.

  32. Wrong!
    New York has one police department for all five borough.
    They have a separate DA’s office for each borough.
    NYC has several police departments each with a separate union. Besides the main police department I know they have a department that does nothing but police the subway and other transportation systems.

  33. New Years Eve should be interesting when the Protestors meet up with party Goers and the booze is flowing with no police.

  34. So the police decide they can abandon their sworn duties because the mayor said something they didn’t like? Di Blasio is a putz, but that’s no excuse for the police to let crime run rampant just because their feelz are hurt.
    Where is Calvin Coolidge when you need him?

  35. You know many people insist the general public are fools, yet how then do you then explain Obama Bin Lying’s success?
    Number one gun salesman 6 years running?
    I think the public read this poser and his(gang) enablers, Loud and Clear.

  36. “…no excuse for the police to let crime run rampant just because their feelz are hurt.”
    You missed the part where these are union workers, eh? Obviously that’s what they’re going to do. Because = union.
