5. Corrected the header
wasn't Off. Crowley, but the Police Org. president who wanted Obama to apologize.

25. That is not what the article says - NOT Sgt. O'Connor!
Edited on Fri Jul-24-09 10:48 PM by csziggy
It says:

At around noon today, the same time Sgt. Dennis O'Connor, president of the Cambridge Police Superior Officers Association, gave his press conference trying to push back against perceptions that the Cambridge cops aren't exactly racially enlightened, Harvard student Seth Bannon spotted this cop pull up to a deli on Massachussetts Ave. in what appears to be his personal SUV with a hilarious license plate: WHY-TEE.


Sgt. O'Connor was having a press conference when the officer with this offensive license plate was at the deli. This is NOT Sgt. O'Connor unless the press conference was at the deli.

Here is video of the press conference - no one in the video looks like the cop with the racist license plate. http://www.thebostonchannel.com/video/20167309/index.html

2. You couldn't make up better ironies.
I wonder if he'll have to attend Officer Crowley's diversity/profiling class?

:rofl:

7. unfortunate vanity plate indeed! holy crap.
:wow:. kinda hard to spin THAT one.

I've been in and around the Boston area quite a bit off and on from the late '70's to the present and this sort of thing doesn't surprise me despite the liberal reputation Boston has.

13. Oh I am sure he's an avid golfer.....and this has to do with
Tiger Woods, and his love of black golfers, and how he thinks that golfers should not tee off from the tee.

Is the sarcasm icon needed, or did you mostly figure it out... I think this shows the stuff going on in Cambridge.

14. Now I know the reason for illegal parking zones.
When you need a donut, you can't be wasting time looking for a parking spot.

19. No, he thinks he has a right to display racist license plates....
on his gas guzzling SUV.

Ne's not only a racist, scum, but a gas guzzler, too.

I think it's time a few of the Cambridge finest,...got to

"spend more time with their families"
