NYPD-BASHERS (TOO) WELCOME
New York Post ^ | August 28, 2004 | Heather Mac Donald

The Civilian Complaint Review Board — the city agency that investigates complaints against the New York police — is hoping for a windfall: Surely the protests around the Republican National Convention will bring it a whole new set of clients.

Such a fabulous contingency is not something you just leave to chance, however. So the CCRB has sent out about 750 e-mails to anti-RNC groups across the world seeking their business....

The agency also posted information on the Web site of United for Peace and Justice, the umbrella organization for convention protest, on how to file complaints by dialing 311 or going on the Internet....

And CCRB workers have been attending monthly meetings of the Campaign to Demilitarize the Police, according to a Campaign spokesman....

The entire left-wing legal establishment in New York is itching to sue the police for what it is convinced will be suppression of First Amendment activity. The National Lawyers Guild has lined up hundreds of lawyers and legal observers to tape demonstrations and solicit clients for brutality suits.

Every anarchist in the country is primed to provoke the cops — just as they did in Philadelphia during the 2000 GOP convention and in Miami for the World Trade Organization meeting last year....

Agency meetings are depressing affairs: Despite continual advertising in local newsletters and newspapers, when board members take their show to community centers across the city, they usually are left speaking to empty auditoriums....

Nor can the agency point to a rampaging police department, unable to police itself, to justify its existence. The majority of complaints the CCRB receives are bogus, filed by criminals hoping to make their arresting officer's life miserable. Last year, the board received 5,568 complaints and substantiated 294 of them — out of the millions of officer-civilian interactions each year....

I hope they come and make big a$$es of themselves.

My advice to them is get naked, be loud, make fools of yourself, f*** s*** up, and show America who democrats really are.

This convention will be like the protesters ran Kerry down with their cars.

A group of AIDS activists stage a naked protest outside of New York's Madison Square Garden August 26, 2004. Proving themselves to be real asses, the protesters had confused message "DROP the DEBT" stenciled on their backs. One observer was heard to say, "Well, they finally exposed themselves for what they are." Photo by REUTERS/Jeff Christensen

Some of these women who au natural with legs hairier than mine make me want to do an Oedipus on my eyes.

The true New Yorker is probably the one who, though naked, still can't let go of her handbag.

So the pro-Teerorist crowd wants to provoke NYPD in order to sue the officerws.

Just this once maybe we can crack the skulls of their lawyers - as well as the pro-terrorist rioters.

These people are disgusting .. they would be first to be yelling and screaming if one of the anti-Bush crowd messed with their family or their property. Pitiful!

As the old rabbi from Brooklyn counseled, "The way to avoid AIDS is to sit down and shut-up." Protesters take notice.
