Very cute. Sorry I missed you on Saturday, I had passed out by 8:30,
long Friday night. I did check out the Bushwick Country Club two weeks
ago, though; good stuff. Give me a call next time you're in the 'hood,
yo.

 URGENT BULLETIN
From the Office of the New York City Police Commissioner

Dear New York African American Citizen,

It appears a hate group we've been aware of for some time has once again
reared its ugly head in our beloved NYC. The name of this group is the New
York City Police Department. Sorry, guys. This one is really "our bad."

We have consistently trained these men in application of lethal force
against our own citizenry, especially African Americans, because, well, you
aren't to be trusted. For reasons, please reference multiple Harlem race
riots, Black Panthers, Civil Rights Movement, et al. It's not that you
didn't have your reasons, really, but you're just so damn loud about how
you're being mistreated. Why can't you act more like the Puerto Ricans?
We're busting their heads all the time, and you don't hear them complaining.
Anyway, the historical nature of this behavior has led to a bit of
profiling, in that New York City police officers have an open "fire-at-will"
policy when they see anyone who is black or suspected of being black
involved in questionable activities. To be fair, this is no different than
any other urban police force in the country. Seriously, look into it. You'd
be surprised how many bodies are swept under the rug, or rolled up in it and
thrown into the harbor.

Well, it looks like some of our boys in blue have finally abused this
privilege, and started firing on your children holding hair brushes . We've
included in our "How to Profile A Negroid" training materials that your
community is quite concerned about their hair, but we can't control how well
these men do in training. That would require some sort of "standard" for
allowing a person to be a police officer, and we are simply spread to thin
to stop handing out guns to idiots willy-nilly.

Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee this won't happen again. In fact, a
similar incident occurred last November as well. Perhaps this is because our
officers start drinking more around October to curb holiday depression.
While we resolve these issues, please refrain from using objects in public
as much as possible, particularly anything with a handle, like brushes,
brooms, coffee mugs, ice cream cones, Pop N' Go mowers, rattles, etc. To
assure your complete security, we suggest you stay in your home as much as
possible, which shouldn't be a problem since so many of you are unemployed,
according to our profiling materials. And please remember: the New York City
Police Department does not condone racism even if we practice it, believe in
it, and act upon it to a lethal extent on a fairly regular basis. Again, I
apologize for any inconvenience.

Yours truly,
Raymond W. Kelly
New York City Police Commissioner


Disclaimer: We at the very politically correct website
www.jesusmisappropriates.com do not condone any of the racist statements
made in this letter, but include them only to amusingly show our disgust
with the policies and procedures of the NYC police force, and police forces
in general. Think we're perpetuating negative stereotypes by including them
for a cheap laugh? Drop by and post your comments, and find out why you're a
stuck-up do-gooder who can't take a joke. Thanks for reading!
