You realize you sound fascist, almost hitlerish?
I am sorry the officers died. But they died by a crazy person. Protesting is legal. This is the same argument you get with gun control. One issue and no one should have guns.
And make no mistake, there is a lot of corruption in the NYPD. I had an issue when I asked an officer name after I got pulled over for a seat belt ticket (I had my seat belt on). I got threatened with a misdemeanor for asking his name. I filed an internal affairs complaint. They call me New Year’s Eve at 1130 pm and 6am New Year’s Day. I got back 3 days later and they told me the case was closed since I didn’t call them back sooner...
“But they died by a crazy person”
BS. He was capable of driving from, Baltimore to NYC, precisely where they called for dead cops. a four hour commute. He was then able to use an app to find an area where there were police. He was able to calmly walk around and find precisely two policemen in a cruiser (take one of ours WE take two of yours). Then he methodically and calmly fired four shots into the car. Sorry, but these are not the actions of a deranged crazy person, they are the actions of a person full of rage and hatred, fueled by a false narrative promoted by CRAZY hate filled politicians.
Yes, it is. However, blocking traffic, disrupting commerce, and harassing those just trying to get to work or home is not.
Mr. Brinsley was bat**** crazy, but being bat**** crazy and being a modern liberal are not mutually exclusive. In fact, one could argue that there is a positive correlation between the two.
Within the boundaries of the law, of course it's a Constitutional right to peaceably assemble and petition government for redress of grievances. But I doubt things would have unfolded this way when Giuliani was mayor.
Inciting riots and mayhem is NOT legal.
I’m not surprised; these urban holes have to raise revenue, and they’ll do anything to get it. The last time I paid for a meal in Newark NJ was years ago when I got a nonsense parking ticket (I kept my eye on the meter, which only took 1 hour at a time, to prevent exactly this thing from happening). I paid (as there was no way to prove my case) and never looked back; I advise anyone I know to avoid eating there, and when I am invited by vendors to lunch I steer them to neighboring towns with the same restaurants (without the graft).
NJ has just throwmn out many of its red light cameras, and the welfare chief (mayor) of Newark has asked the state if they could keep theirs; he openly admitted it was for the revenues, and the word “safety” wasn’t even mentioned...
