Here's another NYPD cop "turning"!



So, it seems the NYPD sees their job as planting evidence to meet their quotas.

On 86% black and latino people.

That is, when NYPD cops aren't slamming 89lb boys through plate glass windows and then chaining them to a bed for four days while claiming the boy was under arrest for assaulting someone else.

*Source: various Anonymous twitter feeds while checking on their action.

However, check this one cop out. Last comment: "Portrait of Courage" +1

It's always dangerous in places like the army and police to not "go along to get along"

Does anyone know the percent of how many turned ?
