"New York City Police Commissioner Bill Bratton said today that he does not believe the Mayor Bill de Blasio needs to apologize in the wake of the killings of two New York City Police Department (NYPD) officers on Saturday, adding that he has not seen this much tension against the police since he first joined the force in 1970."

not that I'm a fan of Bratton.

and I guess he had to say it, since he is on the Mayor's team so to speak.

Guys like Kerik and Harry Houck (and apparent Reaganites like the Time Magazine columnist Meacham) scare me.

Hi Ellenrr. I thought I scared you off.

LOL.
uh-oh, am I going to get alerted for that??

Nah, I don't scare easily.
Haven't seen you in a while. everything good?

Yes I remember Kerik - a real bad player.

I guess folk forget this too:

Still working on my project that I've been trying to pull together since who knows when.

I may be making some progress at getting new space for a community project.

... he has not seen ...

... they don't get it ...

... they haven't seen it ...

... none of these people were trying to see it ...

... and, because of their willful ignorance of the problems that have existed in this country for centuries ...

... here we are ...

... crooked politics practices by crooked people who ignore (more ignorance) the will of The People ...

"Obviously, there's a lot of emotion involved when two police officers are killed," Kelly told ABC News during an appearance on the network on Sunday. "When the mayor made statements about how they had to train his son, who is biracial, to be careful when he's dealing with the police, I think that set off this latest firestorm."

BULL- what the mayor told his son is what practically every Black person in America tells their child. It's an attempt to make sure they grow up, and not be shot down in the prime of life.

and the always lovely former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani placed some of the blame for anti-police sentiments on the president. Appearing on Fox News, Giuliani accused Obama of disseminating "propaganda" inciting people to "hate the police."

crap

Former Commissioner of Police and of Correction Dept. in NYC.

NOT law abiding:
In 2006 Kerik pleaded guilty to two ethics violations after an investigation by the Office of the Bronx District Attorney and was ordered to pay $221,000.

In 2009 Kerik pleaded guilty] before U.S. federal prosecutors to 8 charges including criminal conspiracy, tax fraud, and lying under oath.
The oath lying had to do with him making false statements to the White House (in his background information statement regarding his Department of Homeland Security appointment) and other federal officials.
Kerik was sentenced to four years in federal prison on February 18, 2010

He actually served only 6 months.

Apparently feeling he was now an expert on sentencing, he said mandatory minimum sentences are not benefiting society.
He authored a White Paper in 2011 that he sent to Attorney General Eric Holder, which outlines his personal observations of the U.S. criminal justice system that he said is in “dire need of repair.” The attorney general’s office has never acknowledged receipt of the white paper nor commented on this alleged submission.

So, a felon for life, is our man Kerik. He needs to be called out for his bullshit.
