That Arenas interview was the highlight of my week.

There are too many sub-human animals in this city for our status quo approach to civil liberties and crime. We need police to shake down the people THEY KNOW are doing crime, even without "reasonable suspicion." I am just that tired of reading endless reports of burglaries, robberies, rapes and murders to give a_ about our useless 4th Amendment rights

heh, thought the title here said "pooped" and not "popped". i guess the bottom of that balloon could look a little like someplace you might find poop.
i am delirious, btw.
