Tish James To Look At Racist NYPD Arrests/​Shea Shows Why Dept. Is Out Of Control…

New York City’s twice-elect­ed Democratic Mayor Bill De Blasio is show­ing his true col­ors. Many peo­ple long believed that De Blasio is not a leader by any stretch of the imag­i­na­tion, and they are being proven cor­rect by the Mayor’s fail­ure to stop the NYPD thugs who go around beat­ing up peo­ple of col­or indis­crim­i­nate­ly.
We wrote about this recent­ly show­ing the tale of two cities, one in which NYPD thugs aggres­sive­ly assault black and brown cit­i­zens, while on the oth­er hand, in servile fash­ion, polite­ly hand­ing out masks to white peo­ple in a park sit­ting close­ly togeth­er, no phys­i­cal distancing.

Everyone knows that the NYPD has long been an incred­i­bly racist out of con­trol group of thugs. That is not to say that there have not been good offi­cers in the depart­ment, far from it.
Nevertheless, the NYPD is large­ly pop­u­lat­ed with a bunch of Irish and Italians who have basi­cal­ly ben­e­fit­ted from [affir­ma­tive action] mem­bers can attest to being the third gen­er­a­tion in the depart­ment and hav­ing mul­ti­ple rel­a­tives serv­ing along­side them.
This essen­tial­ly makes the NYPD a kind of closed mem­bers club despite the Blacks and Latinos serv­ing, either with sealed lips or doing the most to be accept­ed, like the Hispanic thug pic­tured above.
The NYPD has a his­to­ry of fal­si­fy­ing arrests, plant­i­ng drugs, lying under oath, assault­ing cit­i­zens, mur­der­ing cit­i­zens, tar­get­ing black & brown res­i­dents of the city for arrest and incar­cer­a­tion & far more.
They see the depart­ment as their own, regard­less of who is in Gracie Mansion, they do not believe they are account­able to any­one.
Bill de Blasio, in the typ­i­cal fash­ion of oth­er Mayors, before him, has been cowed into sub­mis­sion by a depart­ment, many peo­ple see as mere­ly a gang of out of con­trol, unac­count­able thugs.

NYS Attorney General Tish James

According to the [NewYork Post], a right-wing local news­pa­per, New York State’s Attorney General Letitia James announced that her office is look­ing into the NYPD’s prac­tices as it relates to the Mayor’s social-dis­tanc­ing orders.
It is inher­ent­ly wrong to aggres­sive­ly police one group of peo­ple, yet ignore anoth­er group that com­mits the same infrac­tion,” James con­tin­ued. “The NYPD must bet­ter ensure that a New Yorker’s race, col­or, and the neigh­bor­hood does not deter­mine how they are patrolled.”Said the AG.
According to the [Post] James called on the NYPD to address the issue as reports and videos have sur­faced on social media show­ing vio­lent arrests dur­ing social dis­tanc­ing calls in black and Hispanic neigh­bor­hoods. The AG’s office high­light­ed one video tak­en in the East Village on May 2 that showed a black man being tack­led, punched and dragged on the side­walk before the offi­cer — who moments ear­li­er had his Taser out — knelt on his neck and hand­cuffed him. A video tak­en a day lat­er shows offi­cers approach­ing a group in front of Brownsville homes and one of the peo­ple get­ting flipped on his stom­ach by an offi­cer.
Instead of mak­ing arrests in major­i­ty-white neigh­bor­hoods, how­ev­er, cops just issued sum­mons­es and gave out masks to thou­sands of peo­ple who vio­lat­ed social dis­tanc­ing rules in pub­lic parks, the AG’s office said.

Meet Dermot Shea: Man who will be NYC top cop from working-class ...
Shea

Instead of apol­o­giz­ing to the pub­lic, for what are clear instances of (a) assaults against cit­i­zens & (b), dis­parate polic­ing based on race, the head of the [police gang], the com­mis­sion­er, Dermot Shea, defend­ed the thug cop’s actions, by gaslight­ing the issue, com­plain­ing that speak­ing out against their abuse of cit­i­zens, is set­ting them up to be assault­ed.
No, I believe that your thugs are set­ting them­selves up for what you are pre­dict­ing. How long do you think that you will pull a Lion’s tail before it bites back?
”“I will also not have my police depart­ment called a racist police depart­ment.”Said Shea.
Well, there you have it, [his depart­ment] screw you if you do not like what we do.
Over to you Mayor de Blasio, oh wait, you are too pissed scared to ever offend them again. I recall how they turned their backs on you and dis­re­spect­ed you in every way they could after you chal­lenged them for abus­ing cit­i­zens after you first took office.
Don’t feel bad they did it to Mayor Dinkins, the city’s first black Mayor, they called him the “wash­room atten­dant”. They even racial­ly pro­filed Benjamin Ward their own African-American com­mis­sion­er, whom some of them did not know..
You Mayor De Blasio, even­tu­al­ly end­ed up kiss­ing their ass­es and now you have giv­en them carte blanch to do what­ev­er they have always done, abuse black and brown res­i­dents of the city to fill the jails.

Cops turned their backs on a live video mon­i­tor show­ing New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio when he spoke at the funer­al of slain NYPD offi­cer Rafael Ramos near Christ Tabernacle Church in Queens.

Every sin­gle non-white group that has served in the NYPD has sued the depart­ment for Racist and oth­er dis­crim­i­na­to­ry prac­tices. Women, Blacks, Brown, and even white women have also sued the depart­ment for sex­ism and all kinds of dis­crim­i­na­to­ry prac­tices.
The depart­ment is answer­able to no one, not the city coun­cil, and God’ knows, not to the Mayor, they have ren­dered them­selves scared shit­less, of offend­ing the 38,422 strong gang.
People say there are good cops in the NYPD as there are good cops serv­ing in oth­er depart­ments.
I say if you are a good cop step for­ward when you see these instances of racial abuse. Step for­ward when you see these instances of dis­parate polic­ing.
If you are too much of a cow­ard that you sur­ren­der your dig­ni­ty and sense of worth to cor­rup­tion you have no right to any claim that you are a good cop.

Benjamin Ward an African-American grad­u­at­ed magna cum laude from Brooklyn College. He was on the law review of Brooklyn Law School while being a cop. He was appoint­ed Commissioner of Police by Mayor Ed Koch.
The rank-and-file despised Ward because he forced the inte­gra­tion of Blacks, Hispanics & women into the NYPD’s super­vi­so­ry posi­tions.
Positions the enti­tled Irish & Italians and oth­er whites viewed and still believe to be their God-giv­en birthright.
Oh no, Commissioner Shea. I know you don’t want any­one to call [your] depart­ment racists, why would you, we are too dumb to read or research your depart­men­t’s sor­did past.
The killings, the assaults, fal­si­fi­ca­tion of evi­dence, per­jury, plant­i­ng of guns and oth­er evi­dence, all aimed at incar­cer­at­ing peo­ple of col­or, we will sim­ply ignore those.


We will also ignore the hun­dreds of thou­sands of inno­cent peo­ple ensnared in your drug war, whol­ly aimed at fill­ing jails with bod­ies and padding arrests sta­tis­tics.
We will also ignore the five black & brown boys who were wrong­ful­ly arrest­ed and charged for assault­ing a cen­tral park jog­ger they did­n’t even see, much less assault. Nah … their arrest and pros­e­cu­tion had noth­ing to do with racism in the NYPD.
We will ignore the false arrests of peo­ple who nev­er smoked or sold drugs but end­ed up swept up from places they worked or on the streets and charged with mar­i­jua­na sales and pos­ses­sion.
No com­mis­sion­er Shea, those are not racist actions, in fact, your depart­ment is not racist, after all the city of New York only has black and brown res­i­dents right?
Your state­ments are not only igno­rant, but they also prove what peo­ple already knew and believe, that you are just the head of what they see as a crim­i­nal gang. A gang that robs drug deal­ers and turns around and sells them right back on the streets.
