-War on Police-

Cop-hating mob at Brooklyn housing project injures three NYPD officers

2019-08-18

[NYP] Roving, cop-hating mobs erupted in violence, taunts and gunfire in Brooklyn overnight into Sunday, leaving three officers with minor injuries.

At least some of the injuries were caused by "air mail," objects thrown down at cops from rooftops, police at the scene in Bedford-Stuyvesant told The Post.

By early Sunday, eight people had been arrested on charges of disorderly conduct.

The violence came after a series of water dousing attacks on NYPD officers throughout the city this summer.

"Straight up cowards!" one man in the crowd there shouted at cops at just after midnight. "You don’t know how to do anything you f‐g coward!"One of the cops injured Saturday night had to be hoisted onto a gurney by medics, who rushed him from the sidewalk outside Marcy Houses at around 11:10 p.m.

#11 True, but we've seen how the left inverts and projects -- and they came closer to succeeding this time than they should have.

Trump needs to win, but he also needs bring in as big of a "Trump wing" as possible.

If he can't build the wall or drain the swamp, he at least needs to facilitate the rise of a cohort which will be dedicated to those aims in the post-Trump era.

Whether it arises from the GOP or elsewhere.

#10 Charger, it was Hillary who used hired intermediaries to play dirty tricks on her opponent and who corrupted the Justice Dept.

Russiagate was far worse than Watergate.

Hillary and Comey, Mueller, Weissman, Strzok et al's little stunt has actually brought this country close to war with a nuclear-armed adversary.

#8 The polls are wrong. The Silent Majority will re-elect Trump.

I just hope Trump's second term doesn't end up like Nixon's -- or worse.

#6 Agree w Murcek.
This is beginning to feel more and more like 1971. This country is being torn apart, and not by Dread Orange Man.

The polls are wrong. The Silent Majority will re-elect Trump.

#5 When elections involve the law and order issue, dems historically do badly, so I'd say let them have their fun right into fall of 2020.

#3 The result of electing a communist like deBlasio to head your city.

The police should go on strike and not protect any of the pols or rich folk and see what happens.

#1 You don’t know how to do anything you...

Was the guy right ? What kind of people are being selected by the police bureaucracy to protect and serve ? Returning aggression with violence is the supposed to be a biological prerogative of a fighter. The moment you face violence or threat from a punk, gone is any consideration of your pension or what you will say later to a tribunal of faggots. Your body replies by itself. Unless you're frozen by fear. This is like basic stuff to look for in recruitment and training.

If fighting men are not employed as cops, who is ? There was a time when an attack on a uniform was followed by an all out open season on the aggressors, and everybody knew not to touch a cop.

Forgive me, but if I were an American taxpayer, I would demand some good old fashioned police brutality for my money.
