Five hundred officers took part in the raid that began at 4 a.m. July 31. They searched 22 locations and made 43 arrests. They found $14,000 in cash, eight guns, some hollow-point ammunition, a red baseball bat with the letters "ESP" written on it, gang photos, a welfare ID card, a payroll card from the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, and significant quantities of marijuana and crack.
Wow, I was hoping for a bit more than a baseball bat and a welfare ID card... I wonder how much tax money we paid for these 500 officers... I wonder how many crimes could have been prevented had these 500 officers been doing something productive with their time...
