		<description><![CDATA[Here&#039;s what your cops in North Bklyn are doing:
My husband and his co-workers were drinking beers after work one day in the trouble spot. They work in film, and were loading up the truck and cooling down with a couple of brews when two cops walked up. Since the cops only saw my husband actually take a sip, they started writing him an open container ticket. He was annoyed, but didn&#039;t give any shit because he was in front of the entire crew and, uh, guilty. 
All of a sudden another cop comes up and tells my husband he &quot;isn&#039;t going to like this&quot; but they&#039;re going to have to take him into the station. He wasn&#039;t &quot;under arrest&quot; per se, but he had to be questioned because there had been machete attacks in the area. He assured them he knew nothing about any machete attacks. No matter. They cuffed him in front of the entire crew (no Miranda rights read), called for a paddy wagon, and led him by his thumbs to the back. He told his boss he was being arrested and the cops kept insisting he wasn&#039;t under arrest, just that they needed to take him in for questioning...to see &quot;the detective.&quot; The crew members (union, p.s., and teamsters the lot of them at that hour) were asking if he had warrants. Nope. Just a friendly waste of taxpayers time and money. 
He was taken to the local precinct, locked in a cell with a couple of drunks and junkies, and released after only a few minutes.
To conclude/do the math: 5 police officers and a paddy wagon to wrongfully detain a man at work for a $25 open container ticket. &quot;Bloomberg, a fucking word, please?&quot; is fucking-a right!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Say there was a murder in your home.  After the police processed the crime scene do you think the cops or the city is going to come clean it up?  No, you&#039;re responsible for cleaning it up or hiring someone who will.  MTA&#039;s property, MTA&#039;s responsibility.  I think the message the MTA has sent to the residents of Williamsburg is drop dead, we can&#039;t be bothered.  They are a disgrace.]]></description>
