I Luv New York
There's a reason why they're "New York's Finest."0 comments
NYTimes: Police and Protesters Spar a Last Time, Over the Peace
500,000+ demonstrators behaved sooo much better than the fascist hordes inside at the hate-filled Bush rallies at the Garden.
And, in tandem, the NYPD was the very soul of professionalism, pride and humanity in a very tough job.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Police Commish Raymond Kelly will have to answer, of course, for the wretched conditions at the holding pens in Chelsea—Guantanamo/NY as it's come to be known. And why NYC's law of 1-day arraignment was botched for hundreds of those arrested.
But, otherwise, kudos all around.
Once again, NYC shows the world how it's done.
More on last Sunday's anti-RNC demonstration and on the Convention overall in a later post.
