The Chief's letter is posted here: http://www.veteransagainstpoliceabus...derPatrol.aspx

I for one would LOVE to get Firebug's response to this...

He already commented on it in another thread and generally defended the actions of those officers following the reasoning in the letter.

Looks like FB has finally been embarassed into silence by the actions of the out-of-control agency he works for.
