Bratton is trying to satisfy his incredibly sensitive union heads and rank-and-file, who went on an embarrassing petulance tour when our mayor didn't sufficiently kiss their asses after two cops were killed. That's all this is. More buttressing of the cops' rights to whatever they want and report only to themselves.

Too many people are assaulting cops and getting away with it! Yeah, the cops are the victims, not the perpetrators of too much unpunished violence. That's rich.

No, I actually don't make this stuff up as the article below proves. Do you even read the papers or watch any news? Maybe you have become the new Riot and are only getting your news from the Daily Kos. I can guarantee you the push for this new law is a direct result of all the recent assaults in New York on officers. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out.
