Comments on: NYPD to America: You have no rights http://heliolith.com/archives/2004/09/05/nypd-to-america-you-have-no-rights/ The easiest way to avoid wrong notes is to never open your mouth and sing. What a mistake that would be. - Pete Seeger Mon, 08 Sep 2008 07:53:51 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.2 by: daveb http://heliolith.com/archives/2004/09/05/nypd-to-america-you-have-no-rights/#comment-92 Wed, 31 Dec 1969 16:00:00 +0000 http://heliolith.com/archives/2004/09/05/nypd-to-america-you-have-no-rights/#comment-92 There was a soccer mom of three, returning home to NJ that swept up and held for 24 hours beacause she crossed through the wrong crowd. Dates on their way to the movies, only to get arrested. I think the police were trying to do the best they could given the situation, but huge mess-ups occured and they'll be catching it in the coming months. I think you're going to see a hell of a lot of lawsuits and that's a good thing as far as I can see. If there's one great educator out of them all, it's having to pony up for your stupid mistakes. I think next time (if there is one, likely there will be), you'll see a much smarter operation. But honestly, living here, I think overall, it could have been so much worse and I feel optimistic that it will be better in the future, at least here, especially after all the suits are settled). Unfortunately, I'm guessing all those settlements will likely be coming out of my taxes.
