Your whole post makes no sense in response to mine.

All I said is what was expected? I, for one would have expected the cops to toss the hearts because that has been their MO - to not care. Especially when the hearts represented something the cops did. Wouldn't you expect the cops to behave like brats caught at doing something bad? Wouldn't brats in that situation strike out and try to hurt the ones pointing out their bad behavior?

So I'm torn that these kids were set up for disappointment in this display to begin with. Maybe they should have sent the hearts to someone other than the cops?
