harlem around. rudy, a lot of people do. we know that. the facts are the facts. go ahead. you couldn t walk down 125th street. by the time they got back they didn t come to har mrem before. i care as much about the white people as black people. there s no difference to me at all. it s about saving lives. bernie and bill where we save lives. these people all they are talking about is prop begaaganp. to try to put the problem on the police it s not going to solve it because police are not the problem. police are the solution. there are these two police officers lou and ramos they lost thae lives to protect the black community. all right. from ferguson to staten island.
2014 the number is 46 and they say there s a 53 percent increase between last year and the shooting death of police and this year. i have to go back to what is being told by the leaders. if you put out the anti come rhetoric and you tell people the police are your enemy what are we going to do? how do we get out of it in the 70d. this is where we say cops are pigs are pigs. we are the shepherds that protect people. we get out of it by holding these politicians to task or the words they use. what do you do to the president of the united states. what are you going to do with the guy? is every week i talk about them. i think the general public is disgusted with this racist device iness that took place. a lot of people voted for obama
black community. al sharpton does not represent the black community. the mayor and i went to dozens and buds ens of town hall meetings and community meetings and black communities and we didn t hear about al sharpton or protests. we heard more police officers safer communities and the same thing all families want in this country to be free from harm. that s what we provided that s what the police provided. when politicians recognize that, we can deal with retraining police officers or giving them better training or talking about the escalation but the vast majority put on the uniforms with a target on their back every day know they put their lives on the line and they need the kind of presecurity p re professionals get and recognition politicians that
police. when our leaders had a chance to douse the flames of the racial hatred and the divide that is tearing this country apart they didn t douse the buyers they stoked them. the president of the united states. sometimes you have got a police department that has gotten into bad habits this period of time that hasn t surfaced hidden biases that we all carry around. if you look at what happened with michael brown and what happened after trayvon if you look at the decision after eric garner i am being explicit about my concern and being explicit about the fact that this is a systemic problem that black folks and latinos are not just making this up. the attorney general eric holder wears his race and
police. if it s black people committing crimes they are the ones getting arrested. the problem here is a crime police react to it the president, attorney general have created what i call an atmosphere of state, speech, about police. it is sickening. this at moss pemosphere of h speech as you describe it, mr. mayor, and the fact that you have described, are very accurate. most people don t understand it. most of the people who are chanting what do we want dead cops when do we want it now? these people have been led to believe that is someone actually has the staff that you just had you are the racist when you are telling the truth. i happen. howard will surely say the same thing. during the 8 years i was there i saved more black lives than any mayor in new york city.
