Evil once again reared its immeasurable insanity and murderous abandonment..a maddening massacre of two policemen, sitting in their patrol car in a neighborhood, not that far from Boys and Girls High School, near Fulton and Utica Avenues, the nexus of East New York in Brooklyn..

A thirty one year old Chinese officer, seven years on the force,gun downed in the ambush, Liu was remembered by his wife of two months, who flew in with her in laws from China. Weeping, holding her slain husband’s honored plague, bestowed by Police Commissioner William Bratton.
Some officers standing their uniformed disciplined splendor,outside the funeral home, turned their back on the the Mayor De Blasio, as he offended them after the nation of assassinations of and Ramos Liu two weeks ago ….the emotions…. from despair to disrespect.
The Nation in mourning, the flow of tears drowning out in the sellout out top the gun lobby, the economic ammadaa, confusing hunting with “weapons of mass destruction”.

“I’m too old to cry,” said Adlai Stevenson on hearing aboutanother killing of two protectors of our Constitutional Democracy and its Bill of Rights.
“But I’m too young not to hear the needto curb the murderous crescendos to bear down on our innocents selfless children and humans.”

Evil dissembling , the subterfuge of “:Scarface’ “G men”“Angeles with dirty Faces” “Black Legion” “I wake up screaming”. doesn’t tell the sadism and masochism that prevails in the underbelly of envious maddening minds of bloodthirsty revenge obsessed creatures, itching for their “appearance”,lurking in the neighborhoods where these two young cops were gunned down, their assassin taking his own life, running into a subway..
The terror was not lost on the very young admirers of Adlai Stevenson so many thousands of days ago at the Presidential campaign in Pasadena, California whence the train of onslaught and assassination began in our land.
The horror can‘t b e lost on the very young natures awaiting their tomorrows, watching television and their futures. Adlai Stevenson spoke about.

The army of blue came in helicopter fly over, motorcycles, on feet, in big bars, limos, , the hearse, the Dyker Heights nativesstood on their front porches, “.waving” their big flags, splashed o their balconies.
They heard the taps, and they saluted.. Two wars to end all wars were fought in Europe. The other big skirmishes of suicide killers, not that far in memory. Mortality was on the scale, ndteven Pope Francis ,knowing the life and death balance wasplaying out in his presence.
That poverty war and disease were on the table…..on the nearby links of the golf Bay Ridge course. And in the Military Confinements of Fort Hamilton Base, adjoining the 18i hole course, opposite Poly Prep, the football field where the preppies“reved” their salvos, unconscious of the adjoining Fort Hamiltoncommissary and skyscraper barracks.

The preppies in their “Dead poet’s society” state of mind,oblivious to the assassinations of the two policemen, as though Clint Eastwood in his “Dirty Harry” role, could take over the rank and file, putting high risk neighborhoods like Bedford Sty he would steamroll with hissteam shovel and clean up their arsenal of death dealing guns, machine guns, and suicidalpistols. .
January 7, 2015. The City that never sleeps. …funeral homehours ,lying in state for Mario Cuomo, former Governor or the Empire State thrice, passing at 82…..
