Description | Police organizations are coming down on GOP mayoral hopeful Joe Lhota for dissing Port Authority officers as "mall cops," with several telling the Daily News the comment shows the ex-MTA boss isn't fit for City Hall.
"My phone’s been ringing off the hook from my members. Some of my widows are not happy," said Paul Nunziato, head of the Port Authority PBA.
"They suffered enough and then they've got to read statements like this from a guy who wants to be mayor of New York? They’re just devastated. They have no idea why he would say something like that. Neither do we."
Thirty-seven Port Authority police officers were killed in the September 11 attacks. |
