Seeing seven cops - one in plain clothes, one a New York City Highway Patrol, 4 in helmuts that could have been from WWII, and another way-cool guy in a uniform that isn't military looking.
I don't really like running into this as I walk to the grocery store; yet, understandably, the cops seem to think that they're a comforting presence. When asked, they are steadfast in their denial that anything special is going on. I should look at the helmuts, the vests, and rest easy... I don't.
Bush's presidency has profoundly damaged my faith in my government.
