De Blasio has been refusing to support the NYPD in recent weeks and has failed to support the NYPD when a grand jury did not indict a Staten Island police officer in the death of Eric Garner. During a press conference, de Blasio trashed those who put their lives on the line and stoked the flames of racial tension by noting that he has warned his mixed-race son, Dante, to be careful around police officers. “We’ve had to literally train him, as families have all over this city for decades, in how to take special care in any encounter he has with the police officers who are there to protect him,” the mayor said. Now, police officers are banding together to make sure de Blasio knows that if he is not willing to support police officers in life, he should not be able to publicly show support after death and as such, many NYPD officers are banding together to make sure de Blasio knows he is not welcome at police funerals.
