NYPD Bill Bratton: "I'm not particularly happy about the event"

"The mystery surrounding two white flags that appeared on top of the Brooklyn Bridge today deepened as the New York City Police Department admitted they don't know who committed the security breach or how they accomplished it."

"White flags, which are symbols of surrender, flew from poles on the stone supports atop the famed bridge that connects Brooklyn and Manhattan over the East River."

A favorite Patton quote:

When I want my men to remember something important, to really make it stick, I give it to them double dirty. It may not sound nice to some bunch of little old ladies at an afternoon tea party, but it helps my soldiers to remember. You can't run an army without profanity; and it has to be eloquent profanity. An army without profanity couldn't fight its way out of a piss-soaked paper bag. ... As for the types of comments I make, sometimes I just, By God, get carried away with my own eloquence.

Patton was the sort of guy who drove liberals -- especially liberal women -- bonkers. And yet they rested easier because of men like him.

Yep, now there is no one like him, the liberals run the army and we are all less safe for it.

But at least the police can impose the death penalty for selling cigarettes without a tax stamp, because under Obama's regime tax evasion is a capital crime.

It's a great world that commies have given us.

The white flags may well have been the work of Conservatives trying to get the Establishment goat.

(if so, they succeeded)

PS Patton had better press than he deserved. He screwed up rather badly on at least a couple of occasions (Metz, Hammelburg), but he was good copy.

If you want examples of fighting generals, you're better off with Sherman, Winfield Scott, MacArthur, or Robert E Lee.

The Dude said...

Fuck Sherman.

Bill Bratton is a fraud who got his reputation off the work of Jack Marple and has lived off it ever since.

Marple was the real deal. A foot soldier who devised the whole method of community policing and Comstat that lead to huge decrease in crime in NYC. Bratton became the liberals favorite cop and of course he was the pick of Che Be Blasio as commissioner.

It is only a matter of time until there is a terrible tragedy that will be laid at the feet of Bratton who will resign in disgrace while thousands of New Yorkers perish. I just hope that nobody that I know will be victim of this vicious incompetent.

The white flag is the hipsters way of saying "Please don't hit us with another 9/11, Mister Mohammed." But it's too late considering that you can't take a cab in NYC anymore without being subjected to a rant by Ahmad about how Jew York has screwed him so bad.
