NEW YORK – New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio called for a cessation of “anti-police protests” and “rhetoric” Dec. 22 until two New York City police officers killed by a lone gunman were able to be laid to rest.
While many expressed condolences for the deaths of the officers, they were not necessarily willing to forego protests.
Immediately following the shooting, as reports began to circulate in the media, political commentator Rosa Clemente took to her Facebook account to post a warning to youth in New York. She like many believes a heavy-handed response from the NYPD is not only possible, but likely.
