New York Puerto Rican Day Parade to Feature Convicted Terrorist Oscar López Rivera

The aftermath of the particularly vicious terror attack in Manchester is not the time to be reading about New York City honoring a terrorist in a parade:

Sponsors and government officials marched away from the Puerto Rican Day Parade on Monday — with the New York Yankees, JetBlue and even the city’s top cop ditching the event over its decision to honor a deadly terror organization’s kingpin.

Police Commissioner James O’Neill cited the bloodshed caused by the Puerto Rican nationalist group once run by Oscar López Rivera, who will be hailed at the June 11 march by the organizers of the annual celebration.

“I can’t support a man who was the co-founder of an organization that engaged in over 120 bombings, six people killed and seriously injured police officers,” O’Neill said.

Consequently, O’Neill refuses to march in the parade this year.

Before President Barack Obama commuted his sentence in January, López Rivera spent 36 years in prison for his role as a leader of the FALN, which was behind a series of bloody attacks, including the 1975 bombing of Fraunces Tavern in lower Manhattan that killed four people and a blast that maimed a cop at Police Headquarters in 1982.

That Obama let this unrepentant Marxist fiend out of his cage will tell history all it needs to know about our historic First Anti-American President.

Mayor Bill de Blasio will of course honor the terrorist murderer by marching in the parade.
