    Dear , Appointing to your administration would be seen as a big FUCK YOU to your Black voters & to any voters who care about police violence. This man personally oversaw the coverup of one of the most heinous police murders ever.

    In 1992, led a horrifically racist riot against then Mayor David Dinkins. He has never apologized for his role in it nor has he condemned anyone who was involved in it. Details from the Cato Institute and the late, great Jimmy Breslin:
