Dean Schabner, Dec. 27, 2014, ABC News

The mayor, whose wife is black, said he has spoken to his mixed race teen son about how he should act if he is stopped by police.

In speaking about protesters who were arrested and charged with assaulting police during a demonstration in New York, de Blasio used the word "allegedly," which some in the NYPD seemed to take as a slight.

Patrolmens Benevolent Association president Patrick Lynch and de Blasio have been locked in a public battle over treatment of officers following the grand jury's decision.

Kerry Picket, Dec. 22, 2014, Breitbart

Smartphone applications monitoring police activity have grown in popularity over the past few years due to decreased cost, portability, and accessibility to average citizens.

Some legal scholars debate that even listening to a police scanner radio in some states may not be legal for a private citizen. In the meantime, other police-oriented apps for citizens take it one step further.

Jonathan Lemire and Colleen Long, Dec. 22, 2014, AP

"We are in a very difficult moment. Our focus has to be on these families," de Blasio said at police headquarters. "I think it's a time for everyone to put aside political debates, put aside protests, put aside all of the things that we will talk about in all due time."

Police Departments On Alert After Cop Killings

Tom Hays, Dec. 22, 2014, AP

Brinsley had at least 19 arrests in Georgia and Ohio, spent two years in prison for gun possession and had a troubled childhood so violent that his mother was afraid of him, police said. He ranted online about authority figures and expressed "self-despair and anger at himself and where his life was," Boyce said.

Hours before shooting the officers, Brinsley had shot and wounded his ex-girlfriend, Shaneka Thompson, at her home in Baltimore.

Obama's 'Propaganda' Pushed People To 'Hate The Police,' Giuliani Says

Justin Sink, Dec. 21, 2014, The Hill

The protests, even the ones that don’t lead to violence, a lot of them lead to violence, all of them lead to a conclusion: The police are bad, the police are racist. That is completely wrong.”

Sharpton: Our City Is Hurting From The Vicious Murder Of Two NYPD Officers

By Al Sharpton, Dec. 20, 2014, New York Daily News

As soon as news broke of the tragedy in Brooklyn, I spoke with both the families of Eric Garner and Michael Brown. And let me be perfectly clear, we are all outraged and saddened by the deaths of these police officers. Any use of the names of Eric Garner and Michael Brown, in connection with any violence or killing of police, is reprehensible and against the pursuit of justice in both cases.
