[drynberg]

My advise is to get a sharp lawyer and sue their asses.

5. He needs to contact the ACLU

They would love a case like this.

6. It appears we have more police than crime. Time to take a lesson from the Republicans and

follow a private industry rule, not enough work then lay off some workers.

If police can't justify their wages let's lay some off. Loose cigarette deaths, guitar playing arrests, jay walking wrestling matches, etc., looks like we have too many cops.

9. Seems we're headed for the Star Wars thing of stormtroopers everywhere.

7. Every dam day you see this shit

Cops blatantly violating people's basic constitutional rights and violently, physically assaulting them. What are our lawmakers, Justice department news media doing about this shit?......Nothing absolutely nothing and al we do is complain because that's al we can do. This is bullshit. The cops should be charged with assault, fired, and subjected to losing all their personal property, houses, cars etc. as part of civil lawsuits brought against them. THIS SHIT HAS GOT TO STOP!

8. Respect my Authori-Tay

This has nothing to do with enforcing a law or protecting the public. This is a conflict between an authoritarian personality (which unfortunately many police, although certainly not all, are) and an individual citizen exercising his rights while harming no one.

11. One more reason to hate cops. n/t

12. Subway Musician Arrested & Manhandled by NYPD, Guitar Tossed

A couple of felonies by blue clad thugs. Fire their asses, and spend some quality time in general population of prison.

13. WTF NYC?

When I moved to NYC in the late 80s it was grimier, grittier, un-Disneyfied, and cops left people alone. Now it's cleaner, and decent people are being hammered by the police.
