    The mayor says protests Tuesday came during a “period of remembrance” as two families coped with deep pain and the city mourned the deaths.

    De Blasio said Wednesday that chants by fringe elements comparing police to the Ku Klux Klan were not the voices of a credible cause.

    He calls them “hateful words that attempt to divide this city in a time when we need to come together.”

    New York Police Department Officers Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos were ambushed Saturday by Ismaaiyl (IHSH’-mayl) Brinsley, who later killed himself. He was angry over the failure to indict white police officers in the killings of unarmed black men.

    It’s amazing that there is even a need to discredit a movement that is so obviously disingenuous.

    Oy gevald, so this is to be considered “slaming” the low life protesters.

    He shoud have said, if you dare block or disrupt traffic you will be arrested !

    What a joke of a mayor!! letting a few hundred bums, terrorize 8 Miilion New Yorkers.

    As David Greenfield said, If you hate the NYPD Get outta here ! Including Bill De Sharpton

    I don’t get this guy,
    First he encourages the protests by demonizing cops,
    When they start killing cops – he slams protesters,
    Make your mind whose side you are on, on a side of a mob, or on a side of a police!

    “On Tuesday, NYC Mayor Bill D’blasio led the City Council in a moment of silence in honor of the two slain officers, it would have been much comber had the mayor led and kept a month of silence”
    Mayor Bill D’sharpton, there is a big sale now on luggage, for the safety of all New Yorkers pack it in and leave
