but, what happened today in the sean bell case is uncalled for. I mean, I always knew that they were going to have them not guilty, but to see the reaction to it, even makes me a little upset. I still stand by that it isn't a white black thing, but just to see the reaction to it all, makes me really upset. This is really a sad time in the city.

I have a deep appreciation for NYPD and FDNY.

It just heartbreaking on multiple levels. Sean Bell's death was just unnecessary and used to further other people's agenda. He family was definitely wronged but there really is no clear way to deal justice. The cops, I'm sure (most of them), will have to live with the mistake for the rest of their lives. Trust for the department definitely has been diminished even more.

There is just no win-win from this.
