Rudy Giuliani: This Would Never, Ever Have Happened While I Was Mayor Of NYC

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani slammed current Mayor Bill de Blasio and the Obama administration on Sunday, blaming them for creating an anti-police atmosphere.

“It’s a tragedy,” Giuliani said after the hosts of “Fox News Sunday” showed clips of Obama administration officials commenting on the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner. “That is exactly the kind of misinformation, the kind of lying, that creates this atmosphere of anti-police hatred.”

Giuliani also scolded de Blasio for his handling of anti-police protests in his city.

“Police officers punched, police officers spat on,” he said “There was a tremendous amount of violence. Not just a little bit.

“What you saw in New York City over the last couple of weeks would never, ever have happened while I was mayor of New York City,” he added. “They would not have been allowed to control the bridge. People don’t get to take a public bridge from the public. I don’t know if New York City officials realize if you close down streets in New York City, you’ll kill people.”

The former mayor scorned those who blame cops for killing black men, saying they should focus instead on the black-on-black crime responsible for the majority of black deaths .... http://investmentwatchblog.com (Video)
