Don’t live in NY and don’t care what crazies they elect there. When someone not crazy gets elected, that will be news.

Central Park 5 exoneree and council member says police stopped him without giving a reason​

New York City Council Member Yusef Salaam says he was pulled over by city police without being given an explanation.



You have the power now Pal. Call them before the Council.

"In the encounter with Salaam, which lasted less than a minute at 6:20 p.m., a police officer — heard in body camera footage provided by the New York Police Department — asks Salaam to roll down the back windows of his car.​

​

But after Salaam identifies himself as a council member and asks if everything is OK, the officer quickly withdraws without providing further explanation for the stop. "​

He probably shouldn't have done that.

"Police later said in a statement that Salaam was stopped for driving with a dark tint beyond legal limits. "​

Why didn't the officer state that at the time? And if a test determined the tint was indeed too dark, why not issue the citation, or at least a caution?

The implication is that the tint was a pretense, a potentially false basis for a search.

Replacing windows with steel panels is an option where window tint is banned, like on vans and some commercial cars.

That sumbitch is going to be laughed off of the police force.

Using the New York Post as a source for anything is funny. Good one.
