As the mother of a 16 year NYPD member that article annoyed the heck out ot me.

The Times gave about 10 stories of police overreacting to people mouthing-off to them,and yet there are about 40,0000 members of the department.

It would be nice to read a comlimentary story once in a while.

Cops do have a hard job. They also have a lot of power, and sometimes they over do the heck out of it. They create a lot of their own problems.

It is one thing to be a wuss, which could be lethal in this job, and another thing to be a bully.
