Sadly, a New York City police officer was shot and killed by a worthless thug on Sunday. His death brings the total number of law enforcement officers killed this year via gunfire to 37.
NYPD officer shot and killed during struggle with suspect
NEW YORK (AP) — A New York City police officer grappling with an armed man died early Sunday in the Bronx after being shot three times, possibly with his own gun.
The 27-year-old suspect also died after five officers fired at him, police officials said. He has not been publicly identified yet.
Yeah, well I’ll publicly identify him. That armed “man” was one Antonio Lavance Williams, a convicted felon and all around piece of shit. He’s pictured below along with the innocent officer he killed. I think you can tell which one is which.
The NYPD identified the slain officer as 33-year-old Brian Mulkeen.
“We lost a hero this evening,” Mayor Bill de Blasio said at a news conference outside Jacobi Medical Center in the Bronx.
Nice try, Bill. But you don’t really care about this. You and your filthy pig of a son helped make this happen with your constant indictments of the police that protect your own city. You hate them and if you didn’t HAVE to make a statement like the one above, you probably wouldn’t have. It probably took a lot of prodding from advisers to get you to even say that. This coming from someone who once said, “We need to have a different conversation in this country about guns, but also a different conversation about policing.”

As for his disgusting son, the smug Dante de Blasio: Once wrote about his loathing for police, saying that he had, “no fear on a night walk until the police came,” and “We’re taught to fear the people meant to protect us, because the absolute worst-case scenario has happened too many times. This reality cannot continue.”
Sorry, but I’m not going to mince words here. Fuck you and your father. Not sorry.
Mulkeen was patrolling the streets around a city apartment complex at around 12:30 a.m. as part of a unit investigating potential gang activity, Chief of Department Terence Monahan said.
Mulkeen and his partner tried to apprehend a man who had fled questioning, and a struggle on the ground ensued, Monahan said.
As the men wrestled, Mulkeen’s body camera recorded him saying, “He’s reaching for it! He’s reaching for it!”
“Officer Mulkeen’s gun fired five times,” Monahan said. “At this point, it is not clear who fired Officer Mulkeen’s gun.”
A .32-caliber revolver that police say belonged to the man was recovered. It had not been fired, Monahan said.
Monahan said the suspect was on probation until 2022 for a narcotics-related arrest last year and had several prior arrests, including a burglary conviction in Rockland County.
Mulkeen had served nearly seven years with the department and worked out of the 47th precinct. He lived with his girlfriend, an NYPD police officer in the Bronx’s 44th precinct.
Monahan called the officer “brave,” and said he was “doing the job we asked him to do, a job that New Yorkers needed him to do.”
The track and field program at Fordham University in the Bronx posted that Mulkeen was an alumnus, and had recently become a volunteer coach. The program said that as a student, he was part of the 2008 team that won the Metropolitan Outdoor Track & Field Championship, a first for the program.
“He was a remarkable human being. Everybody loved him,” the slain officer’s father, also Brian Mulkeen, told the New York Post.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, at an unrelated event, said Mulkeen “made the greatest sacrifice. He put his life on the line and he lost it in service to the people of this city.”
The NYPD has had a difficult year, with a number of tragic deaths.
Mulkeen is the second NYPD officer killed in the line of duty, following Detective Brian Simonsen, who was accidentally shot by fellow officers in February while confronting a robbery suspect.
“We’ve been here too often. We know the directions to get here,” Pat Lynch, the president of New York City’s Police Benevolent Association, said at the press conference. “It has to stop.”
Mulkeen’s death comes as the NYPD has declared a mental health emergency amid a spate of suicides by police officers. Nine NYPD officers have taken their own lives this year, a disturbing trend that is also happening throughout the country.
Nine suicides. If they were tranny suicides, the AMA and New York Times would declare that an epidemic. But no, this is about cops. So who cares, right?
Being a police officer has always been somewhat of a thankless job, but in more recent years the profession has become a one that is completely frowned upon. Thanks to the non-stop condemnation meted out to them at the hands of the liberal media, groups like Black Lives Matter, liberals in general, and in New York’s case, having to serve in a city where the mayor despises you, is it any surprise that some officers would become so depressed and despondent that they would opt to take their own lives?
Fortunately there are still people around who will not give in to the liberal false narrative, support our police, and realize what a dangerous job they have. People like ourselves here at this site.
Rest in peace, officer Mulkeen. God bless you.
