Monk

We thought there was another mass shooting yesterday, and at the Empire State Building, and in a sense, there was a mass shooting, but it turns out that it was the New York police who was shooting up everyone:

Questions have been raised over the New York police department's handling of a shooting near the Empire State Building after armed officers injured nine passers-by as they pursued a gunman who had just shot dead his former boss.

One of those injured by police told the Guardian that officers appeared to fire "randomly" as they confronted Jeffrey Johnson, 58, minutes after a workplace dispute escalated into a chaotic shootout in one of the busiest parts of Manhattan.

And the authorities are backing their cowboy cops. Yippee ki-yay! That's just the way it is. We really are just another specie of monkey.
