Christopher Mathias — Former NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly Thinks Police In Ferguson Are Out Of Hand

Former NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly once boasted that his department-- which he described as a "quasi-military organization"-- had “some means to take down a plane" if necessary.

It was this same militarized police force that, under Kelly, conducted a midnight raid on Zuccotti Park in lower Manhattan in 2011, rounding up and arresting journalists and scores of Occupy Wall Street protesters.

It was Kelly who defended his department after the Associated Press uncovered its surveillance of the city's Muslim communities.
Amidst growing outrage, Kelly also defended his department's use of stop-and-frisk. Hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers were stopped by police during his stint as commissioner, the overwhelming majority of whom were black or Latino.

And it was during Kelly's tenure as commissioner that police officers killed Sean Bell, Tamon Robinson, and Ramarley Graham -- all unarmed black men.

And yet, even Ray Kelly thinks police in Ferguson, Missouri, have gone way too far in their handling of the turmoil after the death of 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was shot and killed by police officer Darren Wilson last week….

NYPD strikes again! More police brutality.

Students demonstrating in front of a City University of New York location were brutally attacked by police for no apparent reason. The use of heavy handed police tactics is now standard all across America, but NYPD under Ray Kelly and Michael Bloomberg ranks among the most aggressive. Gestapo-like tactics. What can be done?

Donald Trump gets a police escort to fill his vehicles with gas!

This is too much! Why is Trump getting a police escort to get gas while average New Yorker and New Jerseyans have to wait on line for hours just in the HOPES of getting some gas?

Why are police being PAID to take this guy around to fill his vehicles? Why is he getting this treatment? It's bad enough that the wealthy can do whatever they want, but this bloviator?? It's too much!!!!

We all know what's happening in America...if you are a billionaire, a member of the wealthy elite, or a Wall Street banker, you get to do whatever you want, without consequences, with the sanction and even protection of the state. And US FOOL TAXPAYERS ARE PAYING FOR THIS!!!

Donald Trump is corrupt. NYPD is corrupt. Ray Kelly is corrupt. Michael Bloomberg is corrupt. All for starters.

ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!
