U.N. Wants NYC Cops for Peacekeeping
UNITED NATIONS (AP) - Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon asked New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg on Wednesday whether some of the city’s police officers could be deployed with U.N. peacekeeping missions.

Recruiting police for the U.N.’s 16 peacekeeping missions around the globe has been historically challenging.

“New York City has one of the most diversified police forces around and I think the secretary-general would like to explore possibilities,” U.N. deputy spokeswoman Marie Okabe said before the meeting. “Getting police to join peacekeeping operations is one of the high priorities for the U.N.”

Can’t you see it now? 51 shots fired at an uarmed Somali… Cries of “Giuliani Time” and “This is sfor 9/11″? As a survivor of Giuliani’s Police excesses, this is not a good idea… On the flip, hte NYPD has already palyed the “Agent Provacateur” so, why not privatize the NYPD.
