\n The fiery head of the city\u2019s largest police union in a rare move called the death of George Floyd at the hands of cops \u201cmurder\u201d \u2014 as he raged against anti-cop rhetoric at a press conference on Randall\u2019s Island attended by hundreds of police officers Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot one woman or man that has a shield on their chest, a patch on their shoulder \u2014 regardless of what arm of law enforcement they come from \u2014 will support or defend a murder of an innocent person, and that\u2019s what happ<\/a>ened,\u201d Police Benevolent Association President Patrick Lynch told the scores of officers.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet us be unequivocal,\u201d said Lynch, who\u2019s typically a staunch defender of cops. \u201cIn all my time I\u2019ve never seen a time where not one law enforcement would support \u2014 eight minutes is wrong. There was no struggle. There was no reason. So I know I speak on behalf of every police officer here, it was wrong, we denounce it and we have from the beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n

Floyd was killed May 25 after Minneapolis cop Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for nearly 9 minutes during an arrest for allegedly passing a fake $20 bill.<\/p>\n

Presidents of all the city\u2019s police unions attended the event, including captains, lieutenants, detectives, sergeants, port authority and MTA. There were also representatives from police unions in Nassau, Suffolk, and Westchester counties, as well as state police, along with state and local corrections unions.<\/p>\n

Lynch went on to denounce the protesters who have spewed hatred at the cops or committed violent acts.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve protested,\u201d Lynch said. \u201cWe believe in it and we believe in their rights, but now we\u2019re being guided by those that were intent on violence from outside our communities, that threw the stone, that broke the window, that caused the violence that injured 300 police officers, some viciously. That\u2019s who we denounce.\u201d<\/p>\n

He had criticism for pols who \u201cdemonize police officers as if we\u2019re the problem, as if we broke the window, as if we caused the violence.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also criticized legislators in Albany for their passage of bail reform and warned that they were again not having dialogue with the police about legislation they\u2019re passing now. One such move under consideration in Albany is the\u00a0repeal of state law known as 50a, the law that keeps cop\u2019s personnel records sealed \u2014 a move his union has opposed.<\/p>\n

He also excoriated the Brooklyn DA prosecuting the cop caught on video shoving a female protester during a melee in Brooklyn.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
