And now LAPD will have the reputation for hiring homicidal loonjobs in addition to being racist, sexist, rude, unhelpful, and happy to give out parking tickets like confetti on a Thanksgiving Day parade. The 90 or so % of decent cops on the LAPD must be thrilled with this situation.
I have to wonder if LAPD’s behavior varies by precinct — speaking only to NYC, I’ve heard horror stories about NYPD in “bad” areas of the Bronx and Brooklyn and how they treat the residents. Yet my experiences with the dept in lower (read: below 100th St) Manhattan haven’t been negative at all thus far.
