Its all too telling that much of the local media and many politicians are faulting the NYPD for its handling of Thursday nights Mott Haven protest: They still refuse to recognize even obvious risks of violence.
The event was organized by a group styling itself FTP which doesnt mean Friend The Police, as the chants made obvious. FTP is another face for Decolonize This Place, which intentionally did major damage to subway OMNY readers in January.
Both FTP and DTP promoted the event on social media with invites featuring a burning NYPD squad car and a promise to do battle with cops.
Based on such information revealing clear violent intent, Mayor Bill de Blasio agreed with (and later stood behind) Police Commissioner Dermot Sheas decision to take a firm and forceful stand against another night of havoc in a Bronx commercial district.
Frankly, staging a rally after the 8 p.m. curfew is, by itself, a telling sign: Outside agitators and looters have both proven eager to exploit such protests. Why enable them?
Bigger picture: For all these groups claims to speak for the wider public, they dont. New Yorkers of all races think cops in their own neighborhood are fine. When last the Quinnipiac Poll checked (not since 2017, since its been a dead issue), solid majorities of white, black and Hispanic New Yorkers approved of the way the police in their community performed their job. That the NYPDs citywide approval is a bit less is the result of incessant anti-cop propaganda.
Indeed, Shea notes that it was Mott Haven residents on-scene who pointed out to his cops the troublemakers and denounced the FTP hooligans.
The NYPD isnt being racist when it moves to protect a Bronx neighborhood from violence and disorder

Commies have always had a very clear definition of “peace”:
They rule, you surrender on your knees.
Jane Fonda was part of FTA (F-The-Army)
Same lousy Reds
Same lousy rhetoric
These communists literally demand that people get on their knees and bow before them, like Japanese peasants used to have to bow before warlords.
Commies arent even against prisons. Remember the Bernie bro who is very pro-Gulag?
I remember my very first day of college (1970).
I wanted to meet folks on my floor, so I introduce myself to this one guy and offer my name.
He looks me straight in the eye (Charles Manson stare) and announces “I am a Marxist”.
I have never seen such raw evil and hatred since.
Communists are evil. There is nothing to discuss with evil.
Do you know what Mr. Marxist went on to do in life? Let me guess, he went on to be a teacher or professor, or he became a rich lawyer or business executive.
“Communists are evil. There is nothing to discuss with evil.”
There was a cartoon from the 1990s regarding the ‘Peace Process’ between Israel and Arafat, with Bill Clinton moderating.
On the left was the leader of Israel with this hopeless look on his face. On the right was Arafat holding a sign saying “Death to Israel”.
In the Middle Bill Clinton is asks the Israel leader: “Perhaps you can meet him halfway?”
“This has ceased being about protests. Professional cop-haters have sought to exacerbate community-police tensions to their own ends. FTP organizers telling marchers, If police put hands on us, well put them back on them, isnt the language of nonviolent protest or civil disobedience.”
That had to be it, THANKS! It’s one of my favorites of all time. I didn’t think I was properly recounting it, and I won’t lose it this time.
Sweet airplane, by the way.

Communists operate under many names and now everyone can see the list of names.
