These cops were part of a safety initiative in Bed-Stuy that had seen crime drop 33%. They were helping people, in a largely minority neighborhood no less.

His name is Ismaaiyl Abdullah, and we're surprised he quotes the Qur'an?So according to this very right wing site (popped up on Bing news...), this is what was posted on the killer's facebook page:Can we get this thread off Sharpton and back to the topic at hand? I already linked to his condemnation of the attack. Geez.

Ouch. Hard to see a scenario where he has their support again. He may be gone.

he basically told his black son to always be wary of cops. Basically alot of anti-police rhetoric.

I don't think that these things are "unconnected" in the mind of the shooter, nor do I think the religion is at fault.

Also Sharpton's right hand man. Met with protesters the other day too right after a meeting with LE. There is a lot out more too.

See my edit. I misunderstood your point, realized you had edited before I typed my answer.SaintsInDome2006 said:I don't think I blamed islam there Henry but the facts shouldn't be ignored because they do concern islam either.When Scott Roeder shot an abortion doctor, did we blame Christianity?And you think these things (Farrakhan in Baltimore, the killer from Baltimore, the Surah quoted....) are unconnected?His name is Ismaaiyl Abdullah, and we're surprised he quotes the Qur'an?So according to this very right wing site (popped up on Bing news...), this is what was posted on the killer's facebook page:Can we get this thread off Sharpton and back to the topic at hand?

Yeah, the level of animosity here is unprecedented. You can't have the police interrupting his speeches and turning their backs on the Mayor of the most important city in the world. Wouldn't be surprised if this spirals to the point where the Mayor has to step down.

Stuff like this is exactly why police officers have to always expect the worst intentions of every suspect.

The shooter was never even a "suspect". He shot both officers before they even saw him.

Ironically it just recreates the context of what happened with Michael Brown. Man tries to take the cop's gun, gun goes off, moments later the man is charging the cop.Despicable? Nah.Let's hope what?

This story is obviously going to reverberate in man different ways, but keep your eye on the "inciting violence" angle. There's been a lot of irresponsible "free speech" going on recently that I think you'll see being curtailed going forward. I don't think you'll be seeing any t-shirts like this being sold legally in the future...

Remember when the NYPD were national heroes after the attacks on NYC and DC in 2001?
They still are, right?

This incident today is a perfect example of if a cop feels his life could be at risk he needs to take action. Unfortunately in this case it appears they never saw it coming.Ironically it just recreates the context of what happened with Michael Brown.

My first thought is that this was a senseless and cold blooded murder perpetrated by a lunatic. I'm not sure what other "insights" I am expected to give at this point; several hours after it happened. I just found it interesting that your first reaction was to bring up Sharpton and De Blasio.
SaintsInDome2006
Footballguy
Ok Martie, this was a senseless and cold blooded murder, and De Blasio and Sharpton and no other political figures or events played a role in this. I guess I just saw it wrong.

Hey, Lee Greenwood, life in the city existed before and after 9/11. People...actions. While it was primarily the FDNY who were running up the stairs, countless immeasurable sacrifices were made by NYPD. Not sure what that has to do with this.

The killer may have been a lunatic, but he was certainly motivated by politics. Are you really going to deny a link between the Eric Garner case and the Brinsley murders today? Are you that blind? Or is it intentional bias?
SaintsInDome2006
Footballguy
I guess because I'm shocked by a protest through NYC calling for the deaths of NYPD cops, I'm surprised by the execution murders of NYPD cops because they are cops, and I'm just hoping that ultimately we all support them at this moment, and most especially I hope that New Yorkers support them. On that last point I'm sure they will.

Your first thought was very kindergarten-esque. This did not happen in a vacuum. Context is indeed very important. Sharpton and De Blasio both have blood on their hands. Get a clue.

Also, like clockwork, Apple Jack to the rescue with condescending comments that portend he is so, so above the fray. Bravo Professor!!! Well Done!!!

I like threads like this. Shows people's true colors. Some people step up, and others just step in it. Goes that way for life too.

How would a saber-rattling conservative mayor have prevented these two deaths?

I don't think anyone's saying he could have prevented them. But he certainly doesn't have to help foster an anti-police environment. He clearly chose who to support and who not to support, and now it's come back to bite him in the ###. I've never seen such hostility towards a Mayor from a Police Department. Openly accosting him during press conferences. Turning his back on him when he walks by. It's like a football team that won't walk into the huddle because the hate their Quarterback.

well, when you have the president of the police union saying there is blood on the mayors hands, this story is bigger, unfortunately, these officer's mere deaths, tragic as they are and may they rest in peace.

Can I both respect the NYPD and post about some weird stuff that happened to me there?
I was dragged off of the street -- I literally took a step out of a roped off area off a bar -- with a gin and tonic. I was, in the cop car, threatened with various physical acts, including forcible sodomy, jail, and no trial nor lawyer for a week. I hadn't said a word. This was literally the response I got for a dumb-assed, white boy action.
I know this isn't the right place, but there are serious issues with that department, and I'll never forget my utter fear at being shoved in the back of a car, not resisting, and being ####ed with in a major way. I can't imagine what it's like for not such a clean-cut, relatively young white dude. I don't like Jack White's posting because he's an insensitive idiot about all things, but I've seen the NYPD do messed up stuff. They've towed my car without notice and moved it to different spots and just shrugged.*
eta* This last sentence is a dumb point. What else to say? I guess it goes to power and not caring about citizen concerns? Whatever.
