55. DISRESPECT!

Sun Dec 28, 2014, 01:25 AM

Dec 2014

From my post

Police publicly disrespecting the Mayor should be an eye opener to every American. It’s so disturbing. Imagine how they treat young black men and boys? Bullying the Mayor while the world watches? Young black men and boys don’t stand a chance on the streets. God help this country! Disrespecting the Mayor isn’t about honor to fallen officers, it’s about racist anger. Lets keep it real! Officers who turned their backs to the Mayor are ANGRY with him because they want to kill black people with impunity and the Mayor isn’t playing along.

So many are using blankets here. I keep hearing that. Bull effing s**t

You said?

Find one word that takes responsibility for the fact it's deBlasio's policies that have cops out arresting people for selling "untaxed cigarettes."
So now Mayor DeBlasio is a racist that calls for police to strangle black men for selling cigarettes?
'
WTF!
