NYC will soon be back on track for its 1970s crime rates.
David Dinkins gave New York Rudy Giuliani and governor George Pataki That started the huge drop in crime. I think they'll get a belly full of the Communist in the mayor's office, and it'll get fixed. Meanwhile, the country will correct the 8 year mistake occupying the White House in 2016.
pantin"If they are refusing to do their jobs, simply because the mayor thought the killing of Eric holder was unjust, than DeBlasio should go all Ronald Regan VS the Air traffic controllers on them "
I agree, as this is just another union utilizing thuggish behavior.
Regardless, when you are in that positioof authority you need to be able to subdue someone without killing them and as the autopsy showed he was indeed killed by that. If it was accidental then it was gross incompetance on the officers part.
If I was on the jury I would be more open minded than you.

Deblasio wouldn't make a good pimple on Ronald Regan's rear.
Most of the people who live in those neighborhoods don't pay property taxes, or any other taxes for that matter. I say let me fend for themselves. That's what they seem to want.
You don't know that. You've never been to either one of those neighborhoods and you have no idea what they pay. In fact, YOU probably don't pay any kind of taxes either, and it ain't because you're rich.

Your "open minded" because earlier you were oblivious to the autopsy report.
Once you read what killed him, yes....he was choked to death. You can spin it and call it whatever you want but that's what killed him.
Now if he'd had an asthma attack while resisting arrest, or a heart attack or got tased and coded....then that's different.
The guy was resisting, I have no problem with some rough stuff but there is a reason they don't want cops putting potentially fatal holds on a guy. I mean, you screw up a joint hold maybe you break an arm or soemthing but you don't kill the guy.
Please, if you think I'm missing something then explain it rather than just make backhanded vague claims that I'm not being open minded. Let's see a rationally constructed argument.
