Trouble at the beauty salon

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/25/nyregion/25salon.html?src=mv&ref=nyregion

When will these guys learn? Ladies come strapped to the beauty salons!! It seems like every couple of years some guy walks into a salon and tries to rob it and some off-duty cop goes all Mo'nique on them and busts one.

PSA: Gentlemen, please stop trying to rob a bunch of black women who are getting their perms redone and their weaves tightened. Y'all are like 0 for 7 million at this point.

Great job by this officer!

Mr. Browne said Officer Jones’s performance was commended at an internal police briefing by Police Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly, who said that “her reserve under fire was matched only by her marksmanship.”

Officer Jones, a native of Barbados, joined the department in 1990 and has worked the past 12 years in the evidence collection unit in the crime lab. It was the first time she had fired her gun in the line of duty, Mr. Browne said.

i think it would have been a better job by the officer if she had shot the perp square between the eyes,,,,, yeah al sharptons cronies woulda screamed police brutality for a few weeks but that would have cost a hell of alot less than putting this imbicile on trial ( cause you know hes gonna plead not guilty) and then house him for a couple of years for him to come out of jail and do it again.. only this time it may be some poor working stiff like one of us, a bodega owner trying to better himself in this country, or perhaps a beloved barrista,......

Clearly you don't value the principles this country was founded on much.
