    NY Gov. Cuomo blames POLICE for crime wave

    So the police are committing all the crimes...Lol

    Gov. Andrew Cuomo blasted the recent surge in gun violence in New York City and the state as an 'urgent crisis' that he blamed squarely on police departments because they have done 'very little' to come up with reform plans.

    Cuomo blames POLICE for crime wave: New York governor says cops must address ‘lack of trust’ in communities as Big Apple shootings surge 82% and threatens to pull funding for NYPD if reforms are not in place next year

    Cuomo said that 'you cannot dismiss these numbers' and pretend that shootings aren't on the rise in the state this year

    Cuomo said that ending the police wasn't an option and that if departments didn't have a reform plan by April 2021, they wouldn't get any state funding

    He also threatened to pull funding from up to 500 departments across the state if they do not have plans in place by April 2021.

    Cuomo raised the growing lawlessness during his Monday press conference where he revealed in New York City murders are up 29 per cent, while shootings are up 79 per cent year to date.

    However the NYPD, on Monday, released its own shooting violence figures - which were higher than Cuomo's numbers - stating that year to date, shootings are up 82.1 per cent and murders are up 30.2 per cent.

      The State Dictator is SEETHING with rage against NYS cops for a very good reason: the largest & most respected PD in the country, NYPD, just endorsed TRUMP!!! Can you believe it, in spite of the stranglehold the Dems have always had on police unions? This vicious & vindictive SOB won't fail to strike back at them with every means at his disposal, because the NYS legislature has given him far more power & control over the state than any Pres has over the country.

      And guess what--ANOTHER huge story TV news media, except Fox, refuses to report! They can't afford to suggest anybody in the country supports Trump!

        I always find it enjoyable when Liberals/Leftists/Statists turn on their own, when the same people who make sure they are surrounded by LEOs when they sign anti-2A/RKBA legislation then try to make them scapegoats for problems caused by liberal values, attitudes and programs.

              Of course he has -- it's like letting a chimp fly the plane.
