Speaking of PDN, did anyone look at the cover that p.o.ed all the police officers and backers of the Blue? It was a story on a robbery in the PD or something - it was unclear to me - but the cover had the hed "Another Black Mark" with a black crepe on a police badge. Anyone who has any sense about cops or watched Law & Order knows the black crepe means a police officer was killed in the line of duty. Lots of complaints and enough to get an apology.
Any one actually see it?
