    It's not going to work unless we also build orphanages to house every child who ever gets arrested.

    Why hasn't Caleb Hannan reported on this yet? It's been a whole five minutes.

    Cran believes we need to go back to the good old days when criminals just walked to the police station and turned themselves in.

    They are making that very point themselves with their NYC work stoppage. Society seems to be functioning quite well without them writing tickets.

    Murders are down all over the nation. Maybe the programs to help minorities are bearing fruit? In NYC, turning Times Square into a mall and gentrifying much of Harlem didn't hurt, either.

    Police union chief criticizes the Mayor, and we get editorials calling on others in the labor movement to denounce the rhetoric.

    Labor organizer assaults cop? Crickets:

    An organizer for one of the city’s largest private labor unions was arrested Thursday in connection with the assault of two NYPD lieutenants on the Brooklyn Bridge during last Saturday's march against police violence.

    Robert Murray, 43, an organizer for 32BJ SEIU, who surrendered to police and who police previously identified as "Male No. 3," is alleged to have pulled Lieutenants Philip Chan and Patrick Sullivan “to the ground” as they attempted to arrest CUNY adjunct professor Eric Linsker for allegedly throwing or trying to throw a metal garbage can. ("The acts of Eric Linsker is what started the whole chain of events," said Manhattan chief of detectives William Aubry at a press conference today.)

    Referring to video of the melee, Aubry said, “He also punches Lt. Chan, twice, so hard that we have a witness that says he heard the fist to the face. He heard that noise.”

    So you think there should be editorials calling for what exactly?
