NYPD Female Cop Punched IN Face By Repeat Offender

The recent incident involving a female NYPD officer being assaulted is a sobering reminder of the risks law enforcement officers face daily. The officer, while intervening in a dispute, was punched in the face by a repeat offender, resulting in facial injuries and a trip to the hospital. This event has sparked discussions about the safety of police officers and the consequences for those who assault law enforcement personnel.

Assaults on police officers are not only a crime against the individuals but also an attack on the rule of law within society. These acts can have far-reaching implications, affecting not just the officers and their families but also the communities they serve. The NYPD, like other law enforcement agencies, trains its officers to handle a variety of situations with the utmost professionalism, but confrontations with violent individuals pose unpredictable dangers.

The suspect in this case, who has a history of similar offenses, now faces charges that reflect the seriousness of the assault on a police officer. The Police Benevolent Association has expressed relief that the officer is recovering but emphasizes the need for a justice system that supports law enforcement and ensures that offenders face appropriate consequences.

This incident also highlights the broader issue of how society deals with repeat offenders and the importance of supporting law enforcement in their efforts to maintain public safety. It's a complex challenge that requires a balanced approach, respecting the rights of individuals while also protecting those who put themselves in harm's way to uphold the law.

The suspect involved in the assault on the NYPD officer has been charged with assault on a police officer, attempted assault, menacing a police officer, and criminal possession of a weapon. These charges reflect the severity of the attack and the potential threat it posed to the officer and public safety. Assault on a police officer is a serious offense that carries significant legal consequences, underscoring the gravity of such actions against law enforcement personnel.

Unfortunately, some on social media were quick to attack female officers rather than the repeat offender. This has been a trend among conservative right-wing subscribers who have had a misogynistic view ever since the assassination attempt against former president Donald J. Trump. They criticized the presence of female Secret Service agents and their performance during the assassination attempt.  

Despite male cops often being on the receiving end of perpetrators, these people seem to think women are inferior, weak or incapable of doing the same police work as their male counterparts.

Cops Killed in Mississippi

Last week on Mother's day, officers Benjamine Deen, 34 and Liquori Tate, 24 were making a routine traffic stop when they were shot and killed. The perpetrators then fled the scene, stealing the police cruiser.  They were eventually caught.  This occurred just days after the funeral of NYPD officer Brian Moore.

I am concerned that there will be an open "hunting season" on cops due to the recent events regarding police shootings which have caused tension in minority communities.  We need to pray for police officers and make sure governments and municipalities give them the equipment and training necessary to keep them safe. As a Church, we must do our part in instilling morals in people so that crime will go down and hopefully vanish.

Officers Down! 10-13

Officers Ramos and Liu 

One of my fears just came true after hearing some protesters demanding cops be killed and having cops as friends.  Two police officers were killed in cold blood on Myrtle and Tompkins Aves in Brooklyn by a deranged man, Ismaaiyl Brinsley from Georgia who first shot his ex-girlfriend in Baltimore and then headed to New York City.  He posted on Instagram that he was going to "give wings to two pigs" using hashtags encouraging to shoot or kill cops.  He wrote:

“I’m Putting Wings On Pigs Today. They Take 1 Of Ours...Let’s Take 2 of Theirs, This May Be My Final Post...I’m Putting Pigs In A Blanket.
#ShootThePolice #RIPErivGarner #RIPMike Brown.”

Police officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu had no chance to draw their weapons.  They probably didn't even see Brinsley coming as they sat in their patrol car.  He aimed at their heads with a silver gun which he posted an image of along with the words above on Instagram.  Commissioner Bratton looked visibly emotional, eyes watery.  Mayor Diblasio as well looked emotional.

Police officer Liu was a newly wed and Police Ramos turned 40 on December 12 and has a 13 year old son who still did not process what happened to his beloved dad.  The whole thing is just heart breaking.  The attack was apparently done in retaliation for Michael Brown and Eric Garner based on the Instagram posts.  Brinsley ran to a crowded subway platform where he shot himself in the head.  

I will update this as I learn more.  It is a sad day.


UPDATE: 12/21/14
According to news reports, Brinsley had a troubled past being arrested numerous times and a record for gun possession.  He had broken into his ex girlfriend's apartment and shot her after attempting to commit suicide.  His ex girlfriend had tried to stop him, but he shot her instead of himself.  Then he called her mom and said he shot her accidentally.  It is believed that he used her cell phone to do so.  Next he would board a bus from Baltimore to New York City.  While in New York, he approached some gang members and asked their affiliation.  He then told them to add him to their Instagram accounts because he was going to do something big and then discarded the phone at the Barcalay's Center. After this, he walked by the patrol car where both officers Ramos and Liu were eating lunch. He came by the passenger side and shot them both in the head execution style.  They did not have any time to react at all.  After the assassination, a postal worker followed Brinsley in his truck and when he saw police officers, he notified them.  They then went after Brinsley who ran into a subway station where he shot himself in the head.

Some people reported that a group of hecklers were applauding at the death of the officers and shouted at police officers present, "good for you."  I have not confirmed this, but it is going around on the internet. A makeshift memorial was created near the scene and keeps growing with flowers, candles and other items.  Prayers were held Sunday evening for the officers and their relatives.  The cousin of Police Officer Ramos seemed to show pity for the coward who took his relative's life.  He said that "we forgive you" and that Brinsley was a troubled man.  This forgiveness is an awesome display of Christianity.  Police Officer Ramos' Facebook lists him as studying at an Evangelical Seminary.  Perhaps he may have been a minister as well in the Evangelical sect. (UPDATE 12/22/14: He was studying to be a chaplain) His Facebook ironically had as his last post a blue imagine which is used when police mourn for their fallen brothers.  This is dated December 18.  Other images on his profile had badges of fallen officers and Biblical or religious messages.

This news has touched everyone.  The New York Yankees are even offering to pay for the education of Ramos' kids.  However as usual, some one always has to take this tragedy and make it into a political game.  PBA president Lynch and conservative political pundits are accusing DiBlasio, Sharpton and protesters of being accomplices of this double cop murder.
