NYPD Cops Call Paradegoers ‘Animals’, ‘Savages’
From an article I posted today:
The vibrant and colorful West Indian Day Parade is a source of familiar tension between police and Brooklyn’s Caribbean community. During this year’s festivities, which were particularly violent, some of the floats’ MCs could be heard saying “We love the NYPD!”— an attempt to bridge a divide, that after today’s news, will likely grow wider (and to remember how much fun some of the cops were having!)
Every day there’s a new NYPD scandal.
While buying batteries at the bodega this weekend, a man crying at the counter buying a Corona. “The cops! The cops killed my cousin!” he said. “Fucking white cops! I can’t take it no more! I’m gonna kill ‘em!”
