Cop group asks de Blasio to paint ‘Blue Lives Matter’ street mural

De Blasio should help paint it too just like he did with BLM on Fifth Avenue.

Radical stooge.

Cop group asks de Blasio to paint ‘Blue Lives Matter’ street mural

By the New York Post, July 17, 2020:

The cop-boosting “Blue Lives Matter” NYC is asking Mayor Bill de Blasio to paint a mural outside NYPD’s headquarters to remind cops every time they suit up they still matter to the city of Gotham.

Inspired by the “Black Lives Matter” mural that was painted on 5th Avenue last week, the pro-cop group believes the display would help raise awareness for what police face on the street each day.

“On a daily basis, police officers are verbally and physically abused,” the group’s founder Sgt. Joe Imperatrice told The Post, adding, “this is absolutely about working together and not a push back.”

Imperatrice penned the letter, along with “Standing up For NYC,” to the mayor on Wednesday requesting the mural be painted on Madison Street near Pearl Street or on Broadway near W. 45th Street if the first option near 1 Police Plaza is not available.

“This could be a way to come together and do something positive instead of just seeing the violence and the negativity that comes with the counter-protests,” he said.

The pro-cop group came together in 2014 as a response to the “Black Lives Matter” movement and is identified with the “thin blue line” flag, which has been met with blowback in the US leading to departments to ban the symbol on the job.

Imperatrice actually applauded the mayor for the public support of the “Black Lives Matter” movement, admitting that he is likely part of a small population among the police force.

He said he believes the sign of support opens the door to a number of groups to help raise awareness for their issues to get people talking to each other.

“I think that if we can open up a dialogue and try to understand one another and be able to put this out there… we should start raising awareness for officers’ lives and the fact that officers come from all different backgrounds, you can’t just paint us a broad brush,” Imperatrice said.

City Hall did not respond to a request for comment.

De Blasio’s boosting of BLM is done just to stick it to normal, decent America; not because he really believes in it. Everything about the walking/talking NY POS mayor is phony crapola, except for his motivation ito destroy the US system of government, and replace it with full-bore communism. He will use anybody and anything to achieve that evil goal ( and that includes the BLM rabble ).

New Yorkers need to wake up and send Loon De Blasio packing ASAP!

Cops, not only the NYPD, are the real minority throughout America, especially in the States and cities underfoot of the treasonous, anti-cop Party that dares call itself the Democratic Party. De Blasio, of course, is the poster-boy for abusing and disparaging law enforcement but he is one of many.

Until, the silent majority, if it exists, negates the tsunami of cop-hatred, anti-American sentiment to name but two, the nation will become that which it is presently, driven by a perfidious Party, the Democrats, and its myriad of wannabe Bolshevists or Fascists, they are, now one of the same. It’s a given de Blasio and his tagalong loony, repugnant cop-hating leftists will not acquiesce to this Police group’s wishes.

Per Rudi Guiliani, “DeBlasio is too Stupid to be Mayor.” The mayor if he has any brains, balls or dignity should paint the streets with Blue Lives Matter!!!!!

If truth were known, he was and is probably working for John Gotti and FREDO.

Once he allows, and in the case of blm encourages, the streets to be used as “murals”, then he is engaging in arbitrary discrimination if he does not allow other groups to paint on the streets.

And from a practical standpoint, I wonder if the paint used makes the road makes the road slipperier when it gets wet. If so, it seems the city is asking for a lawsuit in the event of an accident.
