...I live in the Bay Area and have just seen the parts they play on the evening news and have read about some of the rest in the newspaper - like the part where the Black cop drinks from a dog dish and the Asian can't ride a bike.Hope those images raise your morale...
The cop who made it is named Cohen. It was on his web site. You can try finding it but if he has half a brain, he took it down.
The irony is that about 6 months ago the head of PR for the '49ers made a similar, racier video spoofing minorities, women, etc. Parts of it were all over the TV and newspapers and he was fired very publicly. Apparently these cops didn't learn anything from that incident.
Follow Ups:
Thank you. I remember the 49'er video. I live in Santa Cruz County and politics are very similar to that of SF's. The council and Police department show signs of friction, and the city adding an office of compassionate giving (Pot Distribution Office) funded by taxpayers during a time of financial trouble and cutting police funds. :o Not a good mix lol.bolt
...we have had a weekend place in Santa Cruz for 20 years so I'm very familiar with the politics there. IMO, SC is more similar to Berkeley and that makes SF look conservative in comparison.The SF PD has been an old boy network and has been plagued with problems for years and years ("fajita-gate" a few years ago was only the latest example). Mayor Newsome is apparently using the video scandal as an opportunity to investigate the issues within the department from top to bottom with a 'blue-ribbon' panel. We'll see what comes out of it...
