Self Defense via SUV

That is not ok.

Gutless wonder.

And the sad thing is that everyone involved knows the NYPD officers who were involved, or watched as bystanders/riders in the biker pack are expletive-birds...

The politics of it is probably the union and other factions of the NYPD and NYC government making threats with whatever cards they've got to play not because they care about, or like these guys, it's just the typical old fear of "give an inch, and they'll take a mile" reflexive turf protection.

Not the article I read earlier., But the same source.

Sounds like the D.A. is just being cautious and trying to get more evidence so the case doesn't fall apart in court. (giving the benefit of a doubt)

i read it as the biker who tapped on the rear window (the PO) had his charges dropped, and the DA wants more time for building a case against cruz.

My guess is that the investigation is showing that a lot MORE police officers were involved, and the DA doesn't want to take on the PD.

Things like that happen in a "gun free" city.  You would never see this in Texas.  A pic of the bikers arrested show they were all black.  You don't see that info in the press.  The driver did a stupid by getting off the freeway.  A case of bumper car driving should have applied here.  Now, the bikers are sueing the driver.  Go figure.......only in NY......chris3

Not the they were all black noise.  .....  Again?
You think the undercover with the polish name was black?  Or do they just all look alike? Or did you mean they all wore black jackets?

It may be noise, but it is not your run of the mill random noise- check the FBI crime stats.

No? In this case noise is a kind way to describe a statement that clearly ignores the reality.

Pretty significant difference between the disparity in criminality between whites and blacks nationally, and specific claims about the races of specific people involved in a specific incident.
