First rule of the big city Never get into a confrontation with bigots racists misogynists anti-

Semites or anybody else showing signs of craziness Theyre not the sharpest tools in the

the police dont care about gays or transgendered They mercilessly mock and harass them I

would suggest classifying their investigation of this which will inevitably lead to nothing as a

hate crime in and of itself Arrest the NYPD
