Why would you be surprised? This is the same city that voted for a cop and then was surprised to find out he was corrupt. You have to expect NYC to make the wrong decision.

"No see this corrupt cop is black, therefore he's going to be okay. Ignore that he's an state-backed abuser no matter his skin tone, as all cops are rotten to the core, he's black so he clearly know what it's like to be beaten to death for being black."
