Will Christine Quinn Ever Take Any Action To Demobilize NYPD ?

Anti-LGBTQ police violence in Bed-Stuy Brooklyn, Sunday June 3, 2013. How many more times will NYPD harass, entrap, and use violence against New Yorkers before City Council Speaker Christine Quinn stands up to the police ? She can take credit for "mobilizing" police to provide "protection" to the LGBTQ community following a recent spree of violent hate crimes, but she takes no action to "demobilize" the police from their uses of brutality and discrimination, expressions of homophobia, and violations of dignity and equality of all New Yorkers. What do you expect from the city's highest-elected LGBT official ?

Quinn uses NYPD to Block Protesters (Again) (No Surprise)

During a peaceful and legal protest against the mayoral campaign of New York City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, NYPD officers used physical force to attempt to move protesters off of a wide public sidewalk and onto the other side of the street. When we refused and maintained our right to free assembly, they used the bodies to block us from distributing leaflets.

Are the NYPD blocking anti-Quinn protesters again, because she has agreed to retain Ray Kelly as Police Commissioner ?

Speaker Quinn has become emboldened ever since she overturned term limits, got away with using millions of dollars of taxpayer dollars in an illegal slush fund, weakened the campaign finance laws, and used major real estate projects to extract campaign donations from developers in a system that many describe as a "pay-to-play" culture. Now, she is using the NYPD as her own private army. The impression that Mayor Mike Bloomberg has influenced her is an understatement.

Because of her record of corruption, activists are basically waiting for Speaker Quinn to be caught in more scandals, before the mayoral election this year.

The protest last night took place at a "housing debate" in Brooklyn.
