Insurrectionist rhetoric
I have my own army in the NYPD, which is the seventh biggest army in the world. I have my own State Department, much to Foggy Bottom’s annoyance. We have the United Nations in New York, and so we have an entree into the diplomatic world that Washington does not have

The police are being militarized?
That’s just crazy-talk.
And note how a big wheel in the gun control movement is *bragging* about how many gunmen he has in his employ.

Remember, this guy ran on 2-3 different Political Parties Ticket to get into Power, then rigged the Term Limits Law so he could become Mayor-for-Life. Of course, I wonder what Hizzoner would do when that NYPD Cop working in Brooklyn tells his to F.O., and the rest of the Rank and File go along with him when Napoleon Bloomburg crowns hisself Emperor.

Declare independence, cupcake.
Then we will declare war on you and start carpet bombing.

Well, let’s see he has New Jersey to the west and the Bronx no man’s land to the north, nice way to get yourself surrounded there, Bloomie.
Oh and if some trips over the cord at the power plant in New Jersey, your army will wish they were faced with a zombie horde.

Mark One, Mod Zero megalomaniac.

JKB,
He’s the elected leader of New York City, not New York County.
The Bronx is part of his smelly domain.

I thought we had this matter thrashed out in 1865.
Ah, well. I’m sure we can find some good Southern boys to do a reenactment of Sherman’s March, complete with the Burning of Manhattan.

Actually, a good many of us regard these matters as fairly unsettled since 1865.
My wife and I were in Manhattan a few years ago and I saw a huge statue of a soldier on a horse and, to my shock, it was a statue of General Sherman and his mount.
Seeing that was like encountering fighting words.
With $10 billion comes no small amount of hubris, apparently.
And who would brag about having the State Department or the United Nations (which is occupied primarily by third world thugs and their egually charming families and chauffers).
Bloomie may regard his NYPD and its big boy toys as an insurmountable military force, but a few divisions from Camp LeJeune or Fort Hood could have NYC bagged and tagged in a matter of days.

Mayor Bloomberg, I and most of my fellow redneck brethren are better armed and better trained than your “army.”

We don’t need Southern Boys. I’m pretty sure we could get a bunch of good Ohio boys to perform an accurate replication of the battle of Atlanta.
– good ol’ Ohio Boy.

Another data point in my argument that police forces are a standing army.

Tyrants work to disarm the people yet boast about their hired guns paid by those they disarm.
ONLY YOUR ENEMY WANTS YOU DISARMED

Of course…we could always just let him keep it and secede the REST of the country from NYC…..I mean, he’s got the OCCUPY movement to keep him company.

He’s as full of shit as he is on everthing else. NYPD has, maybe, 45000 officers, reserve officers, and school safety agents. He’s not in the top sixty armies of the world. And there are certain sections of New York, Major, that you could occupy by pitching a tent.

Well, I gotta shotgun and a rifle and a 4-wheel drive.
Me and 3 million of my friends, guv’nah. If you want the rest of the lyrics to that song, you let me know.

Keep in mind, please, while you make the anti-shermans march there is some frendly resistance members sprinkled about his kingdom. 😀

NYFC is seceding? Can we start on the wall now?

Mayor Nanny needs to see to his own garden and leave the rest of us alone.
