\n T-shirts emblazoned with the message \u201cBlue Lives Murder\u201d are for sale on Amazon \u2014 and the founder of Blue Lives Matter NYC is demanding they be taken down, arguing that the message puts officers\u2019 lives at risk.<\/p>\n

The shirts, manufactured by the company COTINAC, are being sold for $19.99 plus shipping, Amazon\u2019s website shows.<\/p>\n

Sgt. Joe Imperatrice said multiple people across the country have reached out to him infuriated over the shirts.<\/p>\n

He said he understands tensions are high following the police-involved death of George Floyd in Minneapolis \u2014 and the protests that ensued across the country. But shirts like these are just fueling the anti-cop fire, he argued.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt shows that [Amazon is] bending over backwards for this movement like many other companies are. That\u2019s not OK,\u201d Imperatrice said. \u201cPeople can\u2019t be making shirts up, turning people against [cops]. It\u2019s going to cost somebody, more than likely a police officer, their life.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt needs to be taken down immedia<\/a>tely,\u201d he added. \u201cNo reason to let something like this slip through the cracks. This is making people believe it\u2019s OK to have this mentality and it\u2019s not.\u201d<\/p>\n

Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the shirts.<\/p>\n

Reviews posted on the Amazon webpage call the shirt \u201cdisgusting\u201d and say it \u201cpromotes, incites and glorifies hatred.\u201d<\/p>\n

Floyd\u2019s death on May 25 stirred up national outrage. Police officers were assaulted in several cities as demonstrations turned violent.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve got to be smarter than this,\u201d Imperatrice said. \u201cWe have to be smarter than this rhetoric that police officers are all bad. [Officers are] taking abuse more than\u2026the likes of any generation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now-fired officer Derek Chauvin \u2014 seen on viral video with his knee on Floyd\u2019s neck \u2014 faces a second-degree murder charge and the three other cops have been charged with aiding and abetting.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
