This is disturbing. Which cop, union official or city official paid their respects to the Garner family? Or, any other family member of any of the young men gunned down by police this year, or any year?

I don’t believe any did but perhaps this will set an example should, heaven forbid, a similar tragedy happens again.

Courageous move. Bravo. I would be paranoid that one of the crazy cops would strike out simply because I DARED to come and pay respects.
whatthe46 December 22nd, 2014 at 22:05
if i were the famiy member of the slain cops, i would seriously be questioning the department itself. get rid of the racist cops you know are in the department and the ones that are corrupt, because of their behavior, this nut case took his revenge out on innocent men. prosecute those responsible for the murders of the innocent as they would any other. DO YOUR FK’N JOB!

I hope this gets wide coverage in New York and will help cool down some of the hot heads like Giuliani and police leaders who point fingers, when they should be looking in the mirror.
