Anti-de Blasio NYPD Faction Gets More Support Via Banner

Really?

The tension between the NYPD and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has been well documented. Some within the department believe that the mayor's empathy for Eric Garner supporters gave rise to an anti-police environment in the city which led to the murders of Officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu in December. Now, NYPD enthusiasts are going to lengths to share their thoughts on the matter. 

A banner reportedly bearing the words "De Blasio get off the pot resign we love NYPD" was affixed to a plane which flew over Lower Manhattan this morning. 

This struggle banner is unlikely to move de Blasio, but the NYPD—well, certain members of the NYPD—appreciate the continued "support," without question.
