Al Sharpton: 'Defund Police' Is Nonsense for Latte Liberals in the Hamptons

How dangerous have things gotten in the New York City under Bill de Blasio and Andrew Cuomo? So bad that even Joe Scarborough has to grudgingly admit that things were a lot safer under Mayor Rudy Giuliani. So dangerous that even Al Sharpton has to oppose defunding the NYC police, saying that notion is something for "latte liberals" sitting around in the Hamptons.

Those surprising statements were heard on today's Morning Joe. NYC resident Willie Geist was left as the sole defender of the city, claiming that, unlike others, he feels safe. But in a bit of unintended gallows humor, Willie insisted that the crime statistics are really not up -- well, except for "shootings and murders."

“It appears to be some sort of riot sir. They are stopping all the cars and beating the people inside if they are white.”

“Oh that reminds me: Siri, increase my donation to that ‘negro kids mean something’ group”

After 'The Great Society' destroyed black culture (which had survived slavery and Jim Crow) the black community became dependent on police keeping order.

It was one of the unintended consequences of throwing black fathers out of black families. Even Al Sharpton - who benefited from the insanity of the Great Society - understands that sad dependence.

Well, it is easier to get a latte than to get a limo, and more affordable.
