They brought shame on their profession by being dishonest and politicizing the support the mayor made for all children. The PD's children are precious too.

Why not bond together over that image of love, and shake hands?

The Koch/GOP/Libertarian gang want to discredit all sides in this NON-controversy. To be human and loving is not radical, it's a normal thing.

That hug for all the citizens of NYC. The NYPD have stepped on the hearts of the fathers and mothers who understand what de Blasio was doing.

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

~ Jesus, as attributed in Matthew 5 : 9 (KJV)

And we know what happened to Jesus.
