Honoring Officers Killed in 2020 by ODMP

Mayor Bill de Blasio says he won’t allow groups like Blue Lives Matter to paint messages of their own on city streets after commissioning “Black Lives Matter” street murals throughout the five boroughs.

But the founder of Blue Lives Matter NYC Joe Imperatrice told SILive he isn’t going to let this slide and plans to sue the city to allow them to paint “Blue Lives Matter” near NYPD headquarters in Lower Manhattan.

Well if it's meant to be equivalent to the BLM one it should be done in front of Gracie Mansion.

Bumper magnets are a great way to show support without ruining your car. (you can also remove it when you drive through a hostile neighborhood)

Which is the problem with "Black Lives Matter" as a slogan, implying Americans don't care about black lives.
Not addressing the neo-marxist and antisemitic organization.

Lets follow this logic.
What does blue lives matter imply, Americans don't care about blue lives?

The identity of the second person has not been released. Not long after the murder, an officer from the same police department commited suicide.

Condolences.

Never realized they hire 21 year old officers.

Interestingly, he started out as a full-police officer, not as a Class-II officer. I don't know how these things work though.

I'm not trying to be insensitive right after his tragic passing, but this is the only additional info I was able to dig up. It's from the 2018 salary list. Just interesting. (Name, date hired, rank, salary)

Shimonovich, Jeannette   01/02/2001   Detective Sergeant   $144,127.62
Shimonovich, Nicklas   03/05/2018   Police Officer   $42,500.12
Shimonovich, Robert   01/02/2001   Police Lieutenant   $164,024.90

(In comparison, Chief Meyer makes about $220k, with senior officers making $190k)
