When three NYPD DEA detectives were wounded in the line of duty on the 22nd, some of the medical staff treated them “rudely” because they believed the officers were ICE agents. The left is now weaponizing medical care.

“A crew of NYPD cops were “disrespected” at a Big Apple hospital after being mistaken for federal ICE agents – and police brass is furious over it, The Post has learned.

The flap unfolded Friday night, when three plainclothes detectives showed up at NYU Langone/Cobble Hill hospital after a scuffle with a drug suspect – and things quickly got tense between the cops and hospital staff.

The three cops arrived at the hospital after the suspect scuffled and spat on them during a narcotics investigation by cops in Brooklyn North on Friday, the NYPD said Wednesday.

When they arrived at the Cobble Hill emergency room, the detectives were told they could not go into the ER with their service weapons, so one of the cops agreed to hold the gun while his partner was treated, the department said…

“And then at that point the two detectives heard members of the hospital staff say something to the effect of believing they were ICE and that they should care elsewhere,” the department said.

“[Hospital staff] were nasty to the officers in the waiting room, accused them of being ICE and suggested they go elsewhere,” one ticked off source familiar with the incident said.” New York Post 

The hospital apologized to Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch. There was no information on whether any punishment would be meted to those who created the problem.

The NYU Langone/Cobble Hill Hospital in Brooklyn reportedly apologized after staff treated a wounded officer and his colleagues rudely when mistaken for federal officers. https://t.co/cLUd1l1x2N What is missing is any intent to fire those responsible for weaponizing medical care.

“A hospital that politicizes emergency care is no longer a hospital. It’s an activist institution pretending to practice medicine.”

Let’s be clear about this — hospital staff refused to treat plainclothes NYPD detectives injured in the line of duty. Not only that, these officers were treated with contempt completely outside ethical bounds for medical personnel.

From what I understand, staff supposedly did… https://t.co/nVhidkHZ2Y

No longer just a hospital, now a political protest facility. In another incident, they even targeted a CBP dog. Weaponizing medical care for a dog or a person is despicable.

? WTF?! Anti-ICE agitators are now targeting CBP K-9s, with a Minneapolis kennel employee writing “ICE OUT” on K-9 Dina’s feed chart

I wouldn’t put it past these imbeciles to attempt to poison these pups.

These people are SICK.

Medical “professionals” with this kind of severe hatred means they should not be anywhere near hospitals, clinics, vet or doctor offices.

It’s alarming that someone with these extreme views works in the medical field. She shouldn’t be trusted with a license… pic.twitter.com/TlyqUQeDyV

This is a disgrace. Heads should roll. The “equity” takeover of healthcare has been a disaster. https://t.co/brzwOVLgrj

Weaponizing medical care. How far they have fallen.
