What a stupid, irresponsible, arrogant thing to say.
This is the kind of talk that pushes the right buttons for some nutjob.
Bloomberg is a menace and quite possibly nuts. For a NYC Mayor to even in passing suggest the cops go on strike should be cause for immediate removal from office. Not to mention a strike by the police dept is most likely illegal.
Of course the sanitation and transit workers have gone on strike in the past, but never fire or police. It’s just insane to suggest such a thing.
