The NYPD at work

MANIFESTO

NYC residents who read this blog may be interested in this piece that appeared in this morning's Courant wherein we find that police overreactions aren't limited to the Cambridge, MA constabulary. A brown skinned associate professor at CCSU spent the weekend of July 10 in an NYC lockup because he

had gotten caught in a city sweep ... "It's like a competition. First precinct to one hundred collars wins." It didn't matter who or why.

Of course, there'll be no redress of his grievance; the fascistic terms of the PATRIOT Act have taken care of that.
