We're the Only Ones Sticking Up for Our Crew Enough

A former NYPD officer was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison today for robbing drug gangs and holding children at gunpoint as a part of violent stickup crew that operated along the East Coast. [More]
This is my shocked face. And then, of course, there's this:
Jorge Arbaje-Diaz, 33, admitted that he wore his official police uniform and badge, wielding his service pistol during some of the stick-ups...
Huh. How are we to know the good guys from the bad guys?
 
Good thing this happened in Furious Mike Paradise, where they take measures to make sure that "untrammeled, unlimited, unchecked greed" really is unchecked.


Do you get the feeling that some people are trying to start something, or do they really go through life with a sense of oblivious immunity that they can get away with anything?

Do you think they're right to feel that way?
