A Law Enforcement Maverick Stands with the True Law and Order Candidate

With decades of law enforcement experience, including leading the NYPD during 9/11, former NYC Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik knows a thing or two about what makes a city safe. And it is only natural, that he offers his proud endorsement to Frank Morano, saying “I’m proud to endorse Frank Morano for City Council, and I encourage every Staten Islander who values law and order to do the same.”

As sexual and felony assaults rise in New York City, and Democratic members of the city council downplay them, now is the time when effective leadership, and a hard stance on crime, are most needed. Mr. Kerik says of Frank, “Frank has been a tireless advocate for public safety, law enforcement, and common-sense policies that put the well-being of Staten Islanders first. His zero-tolerance approach to crime, commitment to supporting the NYPD, and dedication to preserving our community’s quality of life make him the clear choice for the South Shore.”

With recidivist criminals being offered a helping hand by DSA councilmembers and sympathetic judges, the social fabric of the city is breaking down with citizens scared for their safety. Mr. Kerik continues, “Frank understands that safe streets are the foundation of a thriving community, and I know he’ll fight to ensure Staten Island families are protected.” Clear words, with a clear message offered by Mr. Kerik.

Lawlessness has no place in modern society and NYC can never return to the dark days of the 80s, though there are members of the Democratic Party who seek to turn a blind eye to crime. Frank Morano can serve as our safeguard against crime-friendly politicians and ensure that the 51st Council District remains the safest in all of the city.

 

Mr. Kerik has served in various branches of law enforcement since 1981. In 2000, he was appointed by Mayor Giuliani as the 40th Police Commissioner of NYC. During his tenure, he oversaw the NYPD during the 9/11 terror attacks. After his departure, he held a number of advisory roles and also served as the Interim Minister of Interior of Iraq after the overthrow of Saddam Hussein.
