I don't know what type of government NYC has but if one of my employees disrespected me like that they'd be gone.
I don't know if they were off the clock or not but I'll bet they were wearing the uniform.

De Blasio doesn't deserve one ounce of respect from cops. Respect is something you earn.

Who you going to replace them with - Sharpton's Army of Garbage? The OBama Zombie Army?
NYC NEEDS the cops - they do NOT need the Mayor.
If the mayor has any self respect, he would resign.
He has lost control of the city. He is a liability
There is no upside to him remaining in office.
You cut out cancers, not show them respect.

Then they should quit.
De Blasio is the elected chief executive of NYC. If the citizens, police included, don't like it they can recall him.

They should - the city would be so peaceful without the NYPD. What could go wrong?

And they can also turn their backs to him.
If the mayor shows even an inkling of support to the kind of element (and he HAS supported the protests) that would march down the street chanting death to cops, then surely he should have no problem with cops silently turning in the other direction when he speaks.

So given Obama's approval ratings, over half of all federal employees should quit?

They elected him as an employee.
Nothing more.
Respect doesn't come with the job - just the office and the desk.

Of course, if that were a Republican vice-president, the lefties on this board would be downgrading the Biden speech by telling us (like they just did in a thread discussing Bill O'Reilly books) that Biden had a ghostwriter for his speech...those weren't his words... 
But we have more class than that...
Thumbs up on the Biden speech from me...

One correction: it was two "righties" (myself and Clocker) who criticized O'Reilly's ghostwritten books. We just think for ourselves and don't always tow the party line.
