NYPD weighed in.
“TELL MY FAMILY I LOVE THEM” words of a MURDERED COP. NO politician will paint those words in the street, protest, label NFL or NBA Jersey’s, or play it over & over on TV news. But starting NOW I will & so will every cop, friend & family member. 🇺🇸🇺🇸#TellmyfamilyIlovethem https://t.co/nMRSEyLY88

This Officer’s life mattered. He made the ultimate sacrifice protecting & serving his community while most were at home comfortably sleeping in their beds. Will any politicians or professional sports teams acknowledge this HERO? May you Rest In Peace Officer Dia. 🙏🏼💙 pic.twitter.com/s65DdAw2DS
