Even before 9/11, it was not at all uncommon to be rousted by the pigs, hauled off to jail, and refused the right to call a lawyer or anyone else, simply for the crime of looking "not quite right" or black, or radical, or what the fuck ever.
Everyone seems to have forgotten about NYPD's fondness for plungers up the butt, or perforating immigrants offering their wallet. Maybe a building falling on them was Infinite Justice.

If it was intended to harm the NYPD, it's had the opposite effect: Note the following man-on-the-street interview (there's a war on we can use traditional language again): The Next Big Thing on WNYC radio 29 September 2001 Freddie Torres of the Red Hook Projects in Brooklyn (who describes himself as a street thug) talks about how The Incident has affected him and his view of the NYPD. (3:00 minutes into the segment). "This is the first time I can say that New York City cops are good." http://stream.realimpact.net/rihurl.ram?file=realimpact/wnyc/nbt/tnbt093001f... DCF

No, it was very limited justice: the towers missed the vast majority of the cocksuckers in blue. -- Yours, J.A. Terranson sysadmin@mfn.org If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place... --------------------------------------------------------------------
