Bobfr You're a disgusting, hate-filled racist @GovernorPataki & enabler of the #WhitePrivilege that excuses murders of innocents like #EricGarner.

I do not condone the killing of the two NYPD officers today. I do not condone the killing of unarmed black people. I do not condone killing.

(24,721 posts)Before all the facts are in, this tragic incident is being used as a political tool/weapon by the Republicans. Pataki, a former NY governor, is not only acting on assumptions before knowing the facts, he is fueling police hostility against Mayor DeBlasio. Pataki should show more respect for the murdered police officers rather than using their deaths to create more chaos .

(17,656 posts)What's the story behind that bag of dog shit?
Cha
(296,893 posts)he's thinking of running for president. It was said he wouldn't have won if he ran for a 4th term.. guess majority of New Yorkers finally had enough of him. As you can see he's a dumb piece of shyte.
Then Spitzer won and we all know what happened to him.

(11,175 posts)Governor Mario Cuomo, although running for re-election and although aware that the death penalty was overwhelmingly popular, stuck to his principled opposition to it. Pataki made that a big issue, as if it would have a major effect on crime rates. He combined that with the usual Republican baloney about tax cuts.

You can truly judge a persons character in a time of crisis. @GovernorPataki failed the test last night. http://mashable.com/2014/12/20/2-nypd-officers-shot/?utm_cid=hp-hh-pri
