I was just wondering that...

>Otano's attorney, Michael Pizzi, said his client didn't do what he's accused of and called his arrest a "horrible miscarriage of justice."

>"Charging a police officer with armed kidnapping when they were armed because they were in uniform on patrol in their own sector, risking their life to protect the public, that cannot possibly be armed kidnapping," Pizzi said.

So, their lawyer is going to argue that if the homeless guy had declined to be handcuffed and taken away to a place NOT 'in their sector', that those two officers would NOT have taken out and used their weapons?

Pretty sure the article said that when the water rises again it will just go back to being submerged, so they won't be paying anyone to do anything.

But yeah, I laughed at the

>Why is the state department concerned about visitors taking away mementos from the S.S. Brookhill if they have no plans to preserve it? McGimsey explained that it's state property and they want it left the way it is.

So basically it's "because we said so, and we also said it's ours so nyah"
