"Not over their dead bodies.
Cops are warning Mayor de Blasio and Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito to stay away from their funerals should they be killed in the line of duty.
The Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association distributed a waiver to members, blaring: “DON’T LET THEM INSULT YOUR SACRIFICE!”
Cops were encouraged to sign and submit the “Don’t Insult My Sacrifice” waiver to ban the cop-bashing pols from their funerals.
“I, as a New York City police officer, request that Mayor Bill de Blasio and City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito refrain from attending my funeral services in the event that I am killed in the line of duty,” the waiver states.
“Due to Mayor de Blasio and Speaker Mark-Viverito’s consistent refusal to show police officers the support and respect they deserve, I believe that their attendance at the funeral of a fallen New York City police officer is an insult to that officer’s memory and sacrifice.”
Officers can download the form on the PBA’s website and drop off a signed copy to their PBA delegates.
The mayor traditionally attends funerals for fallen officers.
Sources say the revolt was sparked by the mayor’s lack of support for the NYPD following the grand jury’s decision not to indict the officer involved in the death of Staten Island man Eric Garner."

Personally, I thought the officer should have been indicted for negligent homicide, However, Comrade de Blasio has so vilified the police I can't blame them. NYC brought their murder rate down from 2,400 annually (mostly minorities) to the present 290. The left politicizes crime and it never ends well.
