...Reflecting the career track of every police officer, Moskos’ tale begins at the Police Academy. The reader quickly discovers the dysfunctional nature of police work, piles of red tape, overly hierarchical and often contradictory management, and a culture that values loyalty, silence, and self-preservation over effective detective work and transparency—what Moskos calls the “Blue Wall.” With such absurdities, we begin to see how poorly the academy prepares its cadets to combat Baltimore’s violent drug markets...
...Anointing Obama I hope you will delve deeper than your glossed-over fairy tale about Barack Obama's upbringing and take up his invitation to address the substantive issues presented in his biography [April 21].

...have has been completely shattered. If God existed, He would have certainly not permitted that human beings be thrown alive into furnaces, and the heads of little toddlers be smashed with butts of guns or be shoved into sacks and gassed to death ... It sounds like a fairy tale. Those who haven't seen this would never believe it. But it's not a legend; it's the truth. Or the time when they beat an old man until he became unconscious, because he didn't cross the street properly. This is already absurd; it's nothing, as long...
