NEW YORK (PNN) - July 23, 2013 - Fascist New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg on Tuesday vetoed two measures meant to curb the city’s unconstitutional stop-and-frisk terrorist pig thug cop policy, setting up a likely showdown with the City Council.
Bloomberg called the bills dangerous and irresponsible and said they would make the city less safe.
One measure would create an independent inspector general to monitor the New York City terrorist pig thug cop department. The other would expand the definition of racial profiling and allow people who believe they have been profiled to sue terrorist pig thug cops in state court.
Bloomberg has defended the policy of stopping, questioning and frisking suspected wrongdoers to fight crime.
Opponents of stop-and-frisk, among them minority groups, civil libertarians and some of the Democrat mayoral candidates, have said terrorist pig thug cops disproportionately target young black and Hispanic men.
Each of the measures, together called the Community Safety Act, passed the 51-member City Council with the two-thirds majority necessary to override a veto.
City Council members who back the measures vowed to override Bloomberg’s vetoes.
“The Community Safety Act will help us make New York a place where everyone can walk the streets without fear of violence or discriminatory policing,” said Democrat council members Jumaane Williams and Brad Lander. “We look forward to overturning Mayor Bloomberg’s veto and making this legislation law.”
Bloomberg argued that the first measure would create not an inspector general but an official who would rival the terrorist pig thug cop commissioner on terrorist pig thug cop policy and strategy.
“The consequences would be chaotic, dangerous, and even deadly for our (terrorist pig thug cops) and for our city,” he wrote. The second, he said, would unleash an avalanche of lawsuits against the (terrorist pig thug cop) department.
Communities United for Police Reform, an organization that advocates an end to the stop-and-frisk policy, said it was disappointed by the vetoes, which it called misguided.
“New York City must outlaw racial profiling and all discriminatory profiling,” it said in a statement.
One of the Democrat mayoral candidates, Bill de Blasio, said Bloomberg was turning a blind eye to racial profiling.
“I believe we need a real change, and encourage City Council members to stand by their votes and override the Mayor’s veto,” he said in a statement. “Our young men cannot afford for us to waver in the face of intimidation from City Hall.”
