NYPD Disrespect Continues, De Blasio Heckled And Booed At Cadet Graduation (VIDEO) [View all]

The disgraceful trend of complete and utter disrespect toward New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio at the hands of the NYPD continues, and it doesn’t look like it will stop anytime soon. It appears that the graduating police cadets from the New York City Police Academy have already been indoctrinated to hate de Blasio just like the officers on the force they are joining. On Monday, a new crop of cops graduated from the Academy, and de Blasio was booed and heckled during his speech to them. Some even imitated the actions of uniformed officers at the funeral of slain New York officer Rafael Ramos and turned their backs on Mayor de Blasio.

At one point during his speech, de Blasio said:

“You will confront all manner of problems. Problems that you didn’t create.”

At this statement, a heckler shouted:

“You created them!”
