Normally, I'd be offended by this kind of statement.

The President of a New York detectives' association tells the membership to look out for themselves first and foremost.

However you want to spin it, it recommends something right next door to dereliction of duty. And a little recognition of the underlying grievances would not hurt, either.

But in an environment where cops are, in fact, being targeted, and politicians are following the crowds....diGiacomo is almost certainly just repeating what police officers all over the country are hearing from their loved ones and friends.

And I feel the same concern for my LEO brother right now.

And the second place year will be like "Twice a Prince" at the '73 Belmont Stakes: barely on the same track.
