I am not making this up: the New York Times has this headline: "Report Sees More Restraint in Shootings by City Police Officers." And then the story: "In 2011, New York City police officers shot and killed 9 suspects and
injured 19 more, the second-lowest annual toll in recent city history,
according to a Police Department report." We should call on the New York city police to spare us its restraint out of mercy for its victims.
