"Bad guys can be found on both sides of the badge".

Ain't that the truth. The women who were mauled, stripped and humiliated in New York's Central Park last week sure found that out! The police watched and did nothing, EVEN AFTER THE WOMEN WERE ASSAULTED AND BEGGED THEM TO HELP THEM!

Tonight on the tube someone actually had the nerve to tell the truth. That the police were told because it was a "minority" celebration (Puerto-Rican) not to get involved, because it would cause more negative press.

If I lived in New York I'd not want to be black OR a cop!
