The mayor said the show unfairly presents the worst of communities and Albuquerque should be showing off its positives. He further said “What’s filmed on ‘COPS’ happens in every community.”

Heck, anyone outside the city can go online to view the ABQ Journal to get the latest news which includes plenty of criminal incidents.

What presents NM in a bad light are videos of police shooting at a car full of kids at a traffic stop (State Police outside Taos) or shooting and killing a woman who drove away after the officer performed the PIT maneuver (State Police again). If the series instead shows stopping bad guys and using proper police tactics to subdue them, it won't hurt the state's image.

I think Mayor Marty banned it because it showed everyone that East Central Avenue has the ugliest whores in the world.

In before the obligatory "Breaking Bad" reference.

Yeah, wouldn't want a TV show giving Albuquerque a negative image.

I went to high school with Rich Berry. He graduated a year ahead of me from beautiful Beatrice High School in Beatrice, Ne. He was a nice guy and a really good athlete back in high school. Haven’t seen him since college though.

Kinda weird that he is the mayor of Albequerque. Didn’t see that coming.
