NEW YORK CITY - WEST INDIAN PARADE - POLICE ARREST GUNMAN
NYPD officers at the West Indian Day Parade, in which the cops appear to be enjoying themselves and interacting positively with the community, instead of preventing shootings that were happening blocks away, possibly at a different time altogether!
The women initiate the dancing, the cops join in an exaggeratedly goofy way, and the passersby smile and laugh. It's a nice show of cops and community members getting along and having fun... if you love murder.
"While these officers were having fun," writes Linda Schmidt, "gunfire broke out along other portions of the parade route." If only these officers had engaged with parade-goers in the traditional NYPD way—stopping and frisking all of them for no reason—those shootings would have been prevented!
