27. I grieve for the Officers Ramos and Liu and their dear families. My heart goes out to them all.

However do not preach their solidarity to me, Blue. They acted like recalcitrant children, not grieving officers. They showed disrespect to the Mayor and Officer Ramos. The NYPD wants respect then they can damn well show some! They made a joke out of that funeral and Ramos and his family. It was a pitiful display of arrogance on there part.

They need to grow up and take some responsibility for there actions. They are employees of the State of NY and the Mayor is there boss. Grow up!

And here is some great respect they gave to to Garner. They mock the victim. I am so appalled at this pitiful ugly display.

Disrespect for our citizens. Disrespect to those that died unarmed. Disrespect for a kind man that could not breathe. He could not breathe as the police strangled him for selling cigarettes. Oh, a black man will never get respect. Yet they will surely get ridicule after they die. It is obvious that BLACK LIVES DO NOT MATTER.

Evidence is here,

RESPECT IS NOT A GIVEN! IT IS EARNED! AND THEY SURE AS HELL HAVE NOT EARNED IT!

When people politicize sports, they risk alienating half their fan base. MADem Dec 2014 #31

Respectfully, although your point about the politicization of sports certainly has merit, branford Dec 2014 #35

Those players were black and that hit home. That coach isn't a cop and he's white. MADem Dec 2014 #39

Apparently, despite your other post, it is acceptable to potentially alienate half you fan base, branford Dec 2014 #41

"Such attire" hasn't been fashionable since Nahn Wun Wun and Terra Terra Terra ceased to be a thing. MADem Dec 2014 #42
