In a move never before seen, thousands of NYPD cops and other police officers from across the country – turned their backs to NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio.
The unprecedented action happened while Officer Rafael Ramos, who was killed last week in Brooklyn, was being eulogized.
Before the funeral started, a sign stating “Dump De Balsio — God bless the NYPD” was held up as the mayor entered the church for the funeral. h/t pix11
Police officers also turned their backs on Mayor de Blasio last week as he walked into the police press conference. Someone also rented a plane to fly a banner with the same message.
