For the second day in a row.

Via The Hill:

Rep. Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.) said Tuesday that political mudslinging had “no place” after the murder of two New York police officers.

“Pointing fingers has no place at all with civilized people,” he said.

It’s the second day on a row that Rangel has urged people to stop criticizing New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and other politicians over the killings.
In the hours after the murders, the head of the city’s largest law enforcement union suggested that de Blasio had “blood” on his hands. […]

Rangel also said that it would be important to understand how the killer, Ismaaiyl Brinsley, was able to obtain a gun despite a history of criminal convictions.

That echoed his Monday comments that police unions should be using their platform to push for greater gun control that could stop someone like Brinsley from obtaining a firearm.
