A Mailman Handcuffed in Brooklyn, Caught on Video

57. The only drugs were those being delivered by mail

From the link in the OP: "Mr. Grays prides himself on getting to know the community he serves, he told me on Wednesday. He figures out who is sick, or old, or enfeebled, and makes sure that their parcels, especially if they contain medication — “I can shake a box and usually figure that out,” he said — land directly at the doors of the people waiting for them, even if they live in fourth- or fifth-floor apartments, in walk-up buildings."

The reason for the cops being so aggressive? Again from the link in the OP: " The driver said to him, Mr. Grays recounted, “I have the right of way because I’m law enforcement.” The unmarked car held four plainclothes police officers, according to the Brooklyn borough president’s office, which has taken an interest in the case."

That attitude is why so many are "cop hate projecting" - too many police are arrogant and think that their badges put them above the law. More police should have the attitude that Mr. Grays demonstrates - knowing the community and serving it.
