I HAVE A QUESTION for anyone who can answer. I live in Cincinnati, so I'm a little far from the what is going on. My question is, have any members of New York's City Council spoken out and condemned the NYPD for this event? Anyone who can give any info on the city council's reactions, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Al Sharpton should be in jail he advoided the IRS for so long. He gains money on tragedy like he cares. They should go to jail though cause the city will show kids its ok to murder if u are a cop

What are they expecting all blacks in the city to go nuts and riot ?

Yeah, I guess not.

I can't hear the voices in your head, y'know. Just the ones in mine.

You're not very smart, too. ching.

BTW, #12 -- I'm not Vietnamese. So... yeah. If that was supposed to be a racial insult, I gotta say, I'm not very insulted.

I know this because I READ. Do you? It seems like you are only adept at smug snide comments.

Yeah, it's racist because at least two of the officers involved are black.

Or maybe just white cops wearing makeup? HMMMM... the conspiracies!

We know because the grand jury is still deliberating and there are TWO witnesses.

That's Two more than any other civilian shooting in this City's history. That's how We know.

The Truth will Prevail. The Racist NYPD policies will be put to light.

The good ole boy network is over. The Thousand years is over.

*The cops failed to identify themselves*

Um... and you know this how?

SP: oh, were you there? by the sounds of your babbling it sounds like you thought you were. you have no idea what actually happened.

Bullets travel faster than cars, sir.

Well, so much for civility!

Cops Lie? You don't say?

"how not to get shot by the police" video, you're a funny one. Too bad, you're not as sharp as "the edge".

Did Sean Bell have a gun? Was he firing at the police officers? The cops failed to identify themselves, they drew their weapons and pointed them at him. If someone pointed a gun at you while you were at the wheel of your car, would you not try to drive away? He didnt try to run them over, he crashed into their cars, they opened fire on him while he was trying to drive away. You are moron, and a hateful angry moron at that. I would love to see your performance under duress. My guess is you would end up as a smear on the concrete.

Yes, because when you're getting shot at or about to get run over, you should ask them--in very polite tones--to stop what they're doing or else you MIGHT be forced to shoot them.

And it's unfortunate that these days, people are worrying more about coming under PTSD rather than causing it for the other guy.

"I guess the majority of cops I've met were just lying about being NG or ex-mil."

Hardly a scientific statistical method, really just more stupid commentary from "The Edge". Given the reports surfacing recently on how the military is failing to treat soldiers with post traumatic stress disorder, even sending soldiers with known diagnoses back in for second, third or fourth tours of duty with little more than a pat on the back and a handful of prozac, #4 and #9 raise a valid point about the suitability of war vets as law enforcement officers.

Shoot first and ask questions later is a failing strategy in the streets of Iraq, it's completely abhorrent to accept this behavior from public servants sworn to protect us in the city of New York.

I still stand by my post, in a force of 35,000, very few are ex-military. In fact, I bet many can't even handle being in the military.

funny, isn't it, ching?

Funny.

I guess the majority of cops I've met were just lying about being NG or ex-mil.

Yeah.

I hope the DA's office don't use those sterile photos of the officers involved.

Notice, it's the WHITE officers with a big grin on their face and the Black officers have a somber look.

That grin means, we'll beat ya and you can't do anything about it, in fact, we'll kill you and get away with it.
