Disrespect – NY Police Used Officer’s Funeral to Make Political Statement – PIC

Okay, while I understand and respect that police are upset at the murder of two of their own last Saturday in Brooklyn New York, blaming the mayor or anyone else for the actions of a crazy lunatic is in itself, lunacy. And that is the blame game the police union has been involved in since the killing of NYPD Officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu.

Since word spread that two officers were killed, the politics began as Patrick Lynch, president of the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association, blamed mayor De Blasio for the killing. Call it a negotiation gimmick and a way to turn the entire police department against the mayor – the man who the union will eventually negotiate with for their new contract.

So like the faithful followers they are, the police officers followed their union leaders and began wallowing in the politics of the moment, using the unfortunate events surrounding the murder of their co-workers to gain grounds at the negotiating table.

And now this. A sign of ultimate disrespect as hundreds of officers used the funeral of one of the fallen to make a political statement by turning their backs on the mayor. I guess this is what slain officer would want.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
