NYPD Commish Ray Kelly Claims NYCLU Is Pushing False Truths

disclaimer first...there is a link at the end of this post to a longer version of this story on my own site, BUT I put the most important part of the story in this posting, and this is a rather unbelievable story and I hope people will take note of it. I'm not trying to push my site, just the story...

A semi-interesting story just got a little juicy. This evening Ray Kelly claimed the NYCLU is publishing and pushing false information:

"The NYCLU report is largely a collection of old, untrue assertions and uncorroborated, self-serving statements by individuals who were arrested during the course of the convention," Kelly said. "The report contains gross inaccuracies, such as its false characterization of the post-arrest screening facility at Pier 57."

Kelly is reacting to the NYCLU's 64-page! damning report on the performance of the NYPD during the RNC.

Lets look at what Kelly is saying again:
"The NYCLU report is largely a collection of old, untrue assertions...and...gross inaccuracies"

So out of 64 pages, if we are generous with Kelly's words, that means at least 33 pages are wrong, untrue, made up! Of course if we were to really take the spirit of Kelly's words he is really suggesting that 50-60 pages are wrong. Kelly is saying the NYCLU has just published a 30 - 60 pages of false information. The NYCLU. A bunch of very professional lawyers. Is Mr.Kelly serious?

You can get a snap shot of the NYCLU's renmarkable history and summary of Kelly's remarkable Police work during the RNC at the full blog post here.

I hope someone asks the Mayor if he thinks the NYCLU is in the business of publishing 30 - 60 pages of false information?!
