Rhetorical question: Obama will be blamed, of course! (But you already knew that.)

1. What if the cops ARE the terrorists?

Old enough to remember the cop riots.

2. What were the cop riots?

Please forgive my ignorance.

5. Guilani fomented a riot in the 90's over the notion of civilian oversight of the NYPD.

These crybaby tantrums are definitely not new, and it's the same asshole at the front of both of them.

6. 1992, the police "Protested" mayor Dinkins

By marching on City Hall, vandalizing as they went, while hteir on-duty buddies smiled and waved them through.

7. There's been a number of them some

back in the 19th century but the one Giuliani instigated was in 1992:
http://www.nytimes.com/1992/09/17/nyregion/officers-rally-and-dinkins-is-their-target.html

"Thousands of off-duty police officers thronged around City Hall yesterday, swarming through police barricades to rally on the steps of the hall and blocking traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge for nearly an hour in the most unruly and angry police demonstration in recent memory.

The 300 uniformed officers who were supposed to control the crowd did little or nothing to stop the protesters from jumping barricades, tramping on automobiles, mobbing the steps of City Hall or taking over the bridge. In some cases, the on-duty officers encouraged the protesters."

17. Dinkins was the mayor in 1992. Not Rudy.

22. That's correct. Giuliani

wanted to be the Republican challenger to Dinkins. He egged on the NYPD.

9. Here's some video of it

12. Thanks all for your replies!

3. Especially if the terrorist attack is committed by cops.

If only the Mayor and the President hadn't "made" them do it.

[arcane1]

4. The cops, and Guilani, will pimp out those dead bodies too.

8. Everything is headed to a real big problem...The oligarchs arent even sure who to support

[LiberalElite]

10. Obama would be blamed regardless what the cops do. nt

[bigwillq]

11. If the administration missed signs or warnings

then, yes, he should be blamed.

[LordGlenconner]

13. Bush wasn't

Not saying I disagree, but W got caught with his pants down despite repeated warnings.

[bigwillq]

14. I blamed Bush.

I wish more people did, especially our elected Democrat leaders. I wish Pelosi didn't put impeachment off the table.

15. Answer: The cops get fucked for being useless self-serving thugs. nt

[Vinca]

16. He'd be blamed anyway.

If it rains, it's Obama's fault. If it snows, it's Obama's fault. If you hit a pothole, it's Obama's fault. That zit on your chin . . . Obama's fault.
