WASHINGTON — Police labor officials, angry over a federal grand jury's refusal to indict Rep. Cynthia McKinney for assaulting a police officer, said Monday they want the House ethics committee to review her conduct.
And they said the grand jury's decision last week sent the message that "it's okay to hit a police officer."
"We hope that members of Congress will review her actions in light of their rules within their own ethics committee," Andrew Maybo, chairman of the U.S. Capitol Police Labor Committee, told reporters Monday at a news conference in Washington.

If a white male senator had struck a black female office the howlings of racism, sexism and assault would have been deafening.
Apparently a black female be racist, sexist and assault someone without being held accountable.
Bump.
I guess some animals ARE more equal than others. What a bunch of bull---t. And, she continues to walk the halls with her untouchable attitude. Each day I have less respect for Congress, Dims and Republicans.
I thought that DeLay fellar was going to make sure this was done before he took leave of congress....
A congressional ethics probe? You know where that is going to lead...
I'm sure she is so afraid of that.
Only the Special People are allowed to slap cops.
McKinney and ethics in the same sentence? Hardy-har-har. On the other hand the people in her district are responsible for this loony tune, they have the power to vote her out. I suggest they do just that.
If you allow the usual suspects to come rushing to your side[Black Panthers,Al Sharpten,Jive ass Jesse,thug life rappers,etc]that just about admits your guilt.
I figured as much....If it were you or me we would have been cuffed and led away to the pokey. What really burns my butt is that she is obviously a racist using her sad ass to demonstrate how not to act in Congress.
Never happen...those folks are a lot more racist and whitey hating than you can imagine, and she feeds that sentiment like her daddy does. Kind of sad really!
Out with the video!!
She is no different than the rest of our arrogant, lying, useless, spineless, worthless elected overpaid do nothings in Washington.
Does anyone know where the grand jury was convened and what its racial makeup was? Was it in D.C.? Just curious.
Was it in D.C.?
Bingo! It oh so clear now.
You left out "inherently corrupt"
Yeah. Right here.
What was that old battle cry?
Oh yea, No Justice...No Peace!
I have sat through jury proceedings in DC. I have never seen any non-blacks in these proceedings, NEVER. In fact, one day, while waiting for my case to come up before the black judge, every single black defendent case was dismissed, and all (ALL) the non-blacks had negative outcomes, no matters what the circumstances were. Reverse descrimination, and no-one cares.
Can you now see why she is untouchable? That's just the way it is.
