Bill de Blasio Hates and Fears the NYPD

Reverend Sharpton speaks next to Cardinal Dolan and New York City mayor de Blasio during a news conference after interfaith roundtable meeting in Manhattan

Like any good radical leftist, Bill de Blasio views the cops of the NYPD as pigs working for the man. It never occurs to him that the cops are collecting 1/5th of his salary and that he is the man.

How crazy is Bill de Blasio when it comes to the police? As crazy as a drug dealer high on his own product sitting in a cop bar.

The bad blood between the NYPD and de Blasio is nothing new — it dates back to an election campaign centered on de Blasio’s withering criticism of the Bloomberg administration’s stop-and-frisk policy, and his close alliance with the Rev. Al Sharpton, who has organized scores of protests targeting cops over their behavior toward urban blacks.

According to a former de Blasio aide, during the general election campaign in 2013 de Blasio’s team was even convinced that members of his police detail were eavesdropping on his private conversations in his city-assigned car. Things got so bad that de Blasio, according to the staffer, would step into the street to make sure he was out of earshot of plainclothes officers.

It’s deeply telling that De Blasio’s people are this crazy and paranoid. It’s what you expect of radical leftists who recite Cointelpro as their talking point. In their mind this really is some kind of revolution and they’ve been acting this way.

De Blasio was savvy enough to bring in Bratton, but not savvy enough to stop surrounding himself with Sharpton’s cronies and the sort of people who celebrate cop killers.

The NYPD isn’t throwing its weight around, as the media insists. It’s reacting to an administration that is nakedly hostile to it.

    Under withering criticism from the business community, voters and the police, De Blasio will no longer be seen or photographed in association with Sharpton. This is called DAMAGE CONTROL.

    DeBlasio makes people miss Anthony Wiener.

  • De Doc

    Wow! The Lunatic Leftist fringe now controls NYC.

    • Lightbringer

      Hate to say it, but it looks as if they control the federal government, too — at least the overly powerful executive branch.

  • BMS

    DeBlasio has lost the respect of the police department and the citizens of New York City, who did not elect Al Sharpton to be their mayor. He should be submitting his resignation papers, but he won’t. Unless he does a 180 he is a one term mayor.

    • Kyle Lyles

      Actually, they DID elect Pig Sharpton as their mayor. Whites didn’t vote for de Blasio, but Blacks and Hispanics did in spades.

        But I thought race didn’t matter.

    Di Blasio will encourage and let the I Can’t Breathe, Hands Up, and I Can’t Think protesters shut down Fifth Avenue. It’s time for the NYPD to bread out the nightsticks, tasers, pepper spray, and even locked and loaded firearms to stop these creatures. Take them on. Break heads. Knock out teeth. And then just let them lay where they fall.

    “In their mind this really is some kind of revolution…”

    As they think, so it is.

  • Lanna

    Anyone who consults with the likes of Al Sharpton is going to loose favor, he owes 4 million or more to the government. (A lot of Skeletons in his closet.) He has a bad reputation and people never forgot his days of being the cheerleader for Tawana Brawley.

      That’s like saying Zimbabwe will come to its senses and reject Mugabe or
      Latin America will turn from socialism. In truth Al Sharpton and de Blasio are the inevitable choices of the demographic now in control of the city.
      You may not like it..but it fits perfectly with what they want.

    de Blasio has infected NY city with the progressive contagion; by the majority of idiots who voted him in. The road to utopia is a rough one; but, it’ll all be better upon destroying its host. He’s testing out the premise that utopia won’t need cops.

    • JR Kipling

      Since NY City is now Third World…then it will vote Third World. ..and become Third World. Race matters. In fact it is everything.

  • Daniel

    The WTC was hit twice by radical Islamists. And several other plots have been pre-empted before De Blasio got into office.
    De Blasio is encouraging and enabling another large scale terrorist attack on NYC with his policies.
    The fact that Obama will not revoke the passports of “Americans” fighting for ISIS and will allow them to return to the US virtually guarantees that Obama/De Blasio will preside over the destruction of the Rotten Apple.

    How disgusting seeing cardinal Dolan standing next to those fools. I guess he’s just another fool. I’m Catholic and so disappointed with him.

    • TotallyPeeved

      Go read Ann Barnhardt on this jackass.

    • JR Kipling

      Well I am Catholic too..and Dolan is just Pope Francis in miniature.
      Confused, Leftist, …at war with the historic Church.

      • Glen Herbert

        Thanks to the both of you, I thought I might be the only one who is tired of towing the line for these social justice communist priests.

  • UCSPanther

    If New York is the Big Apple, then De Blasio and his ilk are the codling moths.

  • JR Kipling

    Is that Timothy Cardinal Dolan “St. Doofus the Perplexed” in the photo? It looks like even his befuddled mind cant quite take in de Blasio. Clue Tim..if you were a real Catholic you would have turned in revulsion from the lies. But..as the saying goes…”What is Truth?”

  • Peter Castle

    De Blasio hates cops just as he loves statism. His anti-cop and pro-anarchist rhetoric has exacerbated a wide range of issues and led to the death of two cops.
