that's that's where commissioner bratton comes in. he has some authority with the police department. he was a man that mayor july an any brought in the '90s to do this broken window strategy. there are a lot of officers who still have a lot of respect for him. he finds himself in a difficult position being asked to stand next to mayor de blasio and bridge this divide. he's the most important figure in all of this in some respects. >> msnbc zack roth, thank you very much. >>> in boston the trial is under way for dzhokhar tsarnaev the man accused in the devastating attacks on the boston marathon nearly two years ago. right now security is tight outside the courthouse where attorneys for the prosecution and defense are just five hours into what's expected to be a long process selecting 12 jurors and 6 alternates from boston and surrounding communities. nbc's ron mott is live aboard an armed coast guard vessel patrolling the waters in boston's sea port. what have you got? >> reporter: good day to you. day one of what is expected to be a m

so much to the credit goes to commissioner bratton. i was certain when i chose him as our commissioner that he would lead us to places we had never been before. better places. he has fulfilled that promise so clearly. his leadership, the leadership team he has assembled around him, and most importantly the men and women of the nypd -- 4.6%. 2014 compared to 2013 overall crime down 4.6%. the lowest number of homicides since the modern policing era began in 1993. since what we call the comstat era. the lowest number of homicides we have ever seen. 2600 fewer than the year before. there are so many powerful numbers you'll see today, but think about the everyday lives of our people. 2600 new yorkers did not experience robbery compared to what we are seen the year before. that's an extraordinary impact on people's lives, also setting a record. and in our transit system our subways, outstanding success. major crime down 15%. 15% in 2014 compared to 2013. only two homicides in our subway system for the entire year of 2014. these are numbers f

thank you commissioner bratton. thank you to all who have gathered here to remember this good man and support this good family. all of our city is heart broken today. we've seen it over these last two weeks. we've seen the pain that people feel from all walks of life a sense of appreciation for the sacrifices of this family and of the ramos family. their understanding of people who have never worn a uniform of how many dangers our men and women in uniform face and what it means for their families. all of this city is feeling the pain right now and all of this city wants to lift up the liu family and the ramos family and always remember their sacrifice. detective wenjian liu was a good man. he walked a path of courage, a path of sacrifice, and a path of kindness. this is who he was, and he was taken from us much too soon. our hearts go out to his wife who married him just months before his cruel loss. to his father and his mother who have suffered the unimaginable pain of losing their only child. and to all the men a

it will be tough for bratton. i think he's fantastic.e has more experience than anybody to take on this job. but this divide now is so great and i think the swing from stop-and-frisk at its height to now is so dramatic and i think that somebody has to step in. i really do. >> would you say that was one of de blasio's smartest moves becoming mayor and appointing commissioner bratton. >> yes. >> only smart move. >> this is no reflection on bill bratton. but i think we've got -- we're at a real breaking point. how else can you look at this. they are pulling back. you can say this isn't a work slow down. how else does anybody describe this. >> one important thing. the pull back is a great concern. they have to figure this out. police officers if you look at these numbers it's for parking, moving violations drinking in public. they are not looking into murders or anything. >> arrests are down. summons. >> that's the majority of what we're talking about of what's down. so they are not totally laying down on the job. they are ignoring perhaps s

and their commissioner william bratton, when he made this plea for them not to do this today, he said look it is not a mandate and i won't discipline anybody over it, but i am asking that this day not become about this conversation that we are having right now, that it become that the narrative stay with officer liu and his family and the nypd and like i mentioned before when i talked to officers who came in from out of town i did get the feeling that one of the reason ss that they wanted to come was because they wanted to show that solidarity and they wanted to show that they do feel the support of the nation and while this is a personal issue, a lot of them felt that it was an issue for today. >> thank you, and that is the case for today. for the viewers who are tuning in we are looking at a cold and rainy day in new york city, but one that is not deterring the thousands is of police officers and dignitaries who have come from around the kuncountry to pay their respects to officer wenjian liu who lost his life and killed on desemcember 20th along with his partner rafael ramos. there

so is bratton the key to bringing this thing together? mean i think that's, you know, certainly the way it looks now for the administration. and that's been the plan in a sense all along when the playmayor appointed bill bratton. there was some skepticism from supporters of de blasio who was elected on police reform platform. he was bringing back the police leader who served under giuliani and associated with tough on crime. that was a signal to officer that, you know, he would try to change some of the controversial practices like stop and frisk under his administration he wasn't going to, you know remake wholesale the department and bill bratton was meant along as that bridge. i think he's, you know, in recent weeks, you know, become even more important to the mayor. you see them the last press conference that the mayor held was with bill bratton. now he appears with him today at police headquarters. they've been drawn closer together than ever in the period of conflict. >> david goodman, thank you very much for your time. >>> up next r

bratton is a great -- bratton has surrounded himself with the best people wherever he's gone for all. he surrounds himself with the best people. they built strategies they built teamwork together. they retrain people. you always need to be retrained. anybody who thinks they can't learn something new is being ignorant to what's going on. okay? so some of these officers cops are a strange breed of people. michael will tell you. cops they can't do -- >> spoken by a former cop. >> without a doubt. ask my kids they'll tell you. we all think we're the best at everything and nobody can do anything better than way cane can. the majority of us have great hearts. we make mistakes like everybody else does. we need to learn from mistakes and learn the correct ways to do things. you won't kind too many officers in the city who wouldn't do the job for free. it's what we do 12 hours, 14 hours, 20 hours a day. how many times did we not go home for days right? it's what we do. it makes us better new yorkers and makes the city a better city. the mayor is a rookie. he's going to have to learn. it's as

bill bratton urging the nypd to pay their respects to the mayor. liu is the second of two officers to be laid to rest. his partner, rafael ramos, was laid to rest last week. it was during that service that some of the officers turned their backs on the mayor. over recent community tensions with police. police commissioner bill bratton issued this internal memo to the force, asking officers to show respect at liu's funeral which will be held tomorrow. bratton saying this specifically. quote, i understand that emotions are high. i issue no mandates and i make no threats of discipline but i remind you that when you don the uniform of this department you are bound by the tradition, honor and decency that go with it, end quote. our sara ganham joining us outside that location in a rainy brooklyn. sara what has transpired there? how was the mayor greeted? >> reporter: well just in the last couple of hours, fred we've seen lines and lines, dozens of police officers coming to pay their respects to officer wenjian liu. not just nypd. we have seen a lot of n

that is the mental of the bill bratton. it was during that service that some police officers turned their backs on mayor bill de blasio blasio a silent symbol of anger with recent community tensions with the police. the expectation that we're going to see the same kind of turnout at tomorrow's fub ral that we saw for officer ramos. >> we expect the so i'm kind of the turnout from,000s of the police officers over the weekend. today begin services for sin ginlove. about 4:in china town there is going to be a public memorial service vigil. members of the community and public can come and pay respects. tomorrow is the funeral. and at the funeral we do expect again tens of thousands of police officers from across the country to come and pay their respects. we saw that something similar last weekend with his partner raffle ramos's funeral. jet blue has already said they are flying in for free more than 1100 officers from different jurisdictions from across the country to attend the funeral. with e also expect to see the fbi direc

but when bratton says don't turn your back don't turn your back. make it about this family. and this guy and his contribution to society. >> to what dorian said bratton did a great job of drawing a line saying on this side of the line it's appropriate to express your views and this side is not and when they did it anyway it didn't reflect well on them. >> i think -- >> what do you think, willie. we agree they have a right to do that. >> i agree with that. police in many ways have been totally, unfairly made into villains when they are quite the opposite. maybe there are one or two on the police force that behave in a way that we should condemn. 99.9% of them are out there putting their lives on the line as these two officers did every day. they made their point at officer ramos' funeral. head of the police union made the point again and again. it felt different this time because bratton asked them not to do it. they have a right to do it again. which we heard them on the first funeral. i'm not sure they needed to do it again yesterday but it is the

that has been disbanded now under bill bratton has it not?> intelligence division and the joint task force do investigations. we do investigations based on some reasonable suspicion. we have guidelines that we follow whether the federal guidelines or the agreement. it's strict guidelines that we adhere to. >> so what you say it's not a difference as to how it was working before under ray kelly? >> we continue to do investigations following the rules of law. and we do them to protect the city. >> if people living in new york city or anywhere across the united states see what happens in paris, should they be worried that that's going to come here? >> well, the operating premise here in new york, the nypd the counterterrorism bureau, you know, we are the target. so we have done a number of things over the last 13 or 14 years to protect this city. and our deployment our critical response vehicles our hercules program, our intelligence program, are all part of that mix, that we put together in protecting the city. >> all right. so far for the most

so i think senator schummer's words, you know, about bratton i think bratton is the guy that is going do this, that is going to have to fix it. bill: it's interesting. if you watch the twitter feed on behalf of the mayor, seems like he is trying to make an effort to bridge this gap. i don't know if he can and apparently listening to what you're saying he won't be able to? >> you know what? i think he has got to try. i think maybe he is trying. but you have to realize that the cops are angry they're upset. and, when you don't feel like your commander-in-chief is supporting you is going to be there for you is going to indemnify you should you have a problem with the city, is basically telling his own son he has to watch the cops that guard him for the dangers they may pose that's a problem. and, that is going to have to be overcome. bill: can bratton bridge the gap if he is the key? do you know if bratton still has a good relationship with his boss the mayor? >> well, i can't speak for the relationship. you know, i have, the utmost respect for bratton the job he's done here for the job

it was a request by bratton and not an order.here the power melee, but everybody is waiting to see what the mayor and the commissioner can do to try to fix things here. the mayor has not taken questions on this in the two weeks since it happened. this will be the first time. >> the mayor did sit down with the heads of unions and we saw one who did not turn their backs see if that's a one offer. zack roth at nypd headquarters. thanks for that. hundreds of people gathered to pay tribute to one teenage girl. >> repeat after me. your life means everything. >> legala's story is one we have been upset by before. 17 years old anguished and ostracized and took her own life. when she was hit boy a tractor-trailer on an ohio interstate in an apparent suicide, it turned to a specific tragedy. he was transgender. this tumblr post said she hasn't found acceptance at school or home. people say it gets better but that is not true in my case. it gets worse. each day i get worse. my death needs to mean something, she went on. fix society, please.

you know, bill bratton is in an interesting position, the police commissioner. that first night i remember you were here, bernie, and i said he has a decision to make. is he police commissioner for new york city or police commissioner for the mayor. >> he's between a rock and a hard place. you can tell by his body language, he's real uncomfortable with this situation. the bill bratton i know would have come out strong in terms of people attacking the police, the anti-police bias so on and so forth. but now where this different kind of mayor that he served under, i can tell he's uncomfortable. but he chose to come back and now he's going to have to deal with this. but in the end he better make sure he's sending a message to his cops that that's whoegs back he has. >> i couldn't agree more. i think he is uncomfortable. >> he's got to be. you know him as well as i do. i know him real well. and you know, i've said he was the architect of crime reduction, one of the best police commissioners in new york that they had ever. he came back to this job wanting to run the

commissioner bratton at the funeral earlier said that there are people who need us.e will not abandon them and to do so would be to dishonor the memories of detectives ramos and liu. and do you think that policing will return to normal or will we see the cycle that we have seen for the last couple of months? >> well for anybody who is a bad guy in new york city if you think that this is the time to the have a free for all, think again. because the nypd is not going anyplace and they will continue the police the city, and this is for those who want to commit terrorist attacks as well. the nypd is not taking their eye off of the ball and if anybody believes that there is a gap of security in the city, and they are taking a nap because of the current climate that exists with the mayor, that is not happening. the officers are out there, and acts committed right now across the five boroughs of new york city by police officers out there saving lives and tending to those who need them and responding to the 911 calls as they would 24 hours a day for 365 days a year as they h

i don't know why bill bratton is doing that. he's a tough guy, he's one of the best cops in the country, bar none. it just feels like he's abandoning his police force to try to kind of echo what bill de blasio is saying and it's terrible. say what you need to say and move on. look at the pictures of lou's widow when she's crying at the funeral. look at the pictures of ramos's widow and her son holding on to her back crying. those are not okay. it's not okay what sharpton has done, what obama has done, it's not oh what sharpton has done with de blasio, that's why they're not okay. i just don't understand them backing him so much. >> when you saw that moving picture, that woman, then you see these cops outside, they get the front page. >> it doesn't matter, they did it during a funeral. >> de blasio was very complementary by the way. >> concerning the mayor's statement, all of my communications instincts tells me they were going the wrong thing. because when you're in a position of leadership, your role is to not try to exacerbate

commissioner bratton has been a stray cop.e has been there as a fellow officer as opposed to a politician. the fact that many hope that that would happen today, but what it really shows is that some of the emotions within the police department -- the public discourse that's going on run deep. people don't realize how offensive the remarks are that were made by many public officials over the last month and how they're taking by the police officers. >> members of the community, those were not wearing blue are now going to worry or wonder if police officers don't respect authority from their own commissioner then is there a lack of mutual respect even involving the civilian community and the nypd community. >> well, the commissioner's request was kind of a mild request. he just reminded them that in his opinion, honor meant not to air grievances at the funerals and, you know he also included in his request that there would be no discipline, and there would be no other reprecussions taken by the department. >> was that a mistake?

commissioner bratton has done a good job in los angeles in dealing with this issue well. he's dealing with the issue well here. and i think it can be solved. >> schieffer: all right. i'll let it go at that. let's talk about the new congress that is going to convene. we understand the first thing that republicans are going to do is pass the keystone pipeline legislation. the president hasn't said flatly that he's going to veto it but looks like it's headed that way. what do you see happening there? >> well, look, our republican colleagues say this is a jobs bill. but that's really not true at all. by most estimates it would create several thousand temporary construction jobs only 35 permanent jobs. compare that to the number of jobs created in the economy last month, 300,000. and so democrats are dubious at this. but we're going to introduce amendments to make it more of a jobs bill. we're going to introduce an amendment to say that the steel used in the pipeline should be made in america, creating american jobs. introduce amendment that says that the oil that is used in t
