I hate hyperbole too and I’ve called it out on here before. (And people get all bent out of shape and say stupid things like “I guess you prefer CNN.)
The real story appears to be about one business. Reportedly, one of the owners chided the cops for being thuggish with a pedestrian near their shop yesterday and the cops are trying to get revenge.
Or something.

Then is any of this hyperbole? Since when are cops allowed to ‘get revenge’?
