Hooray for the Denver (and area) Police Department!

The Denver Police have a local reputation for shooting first and asking questions later/never, so I'm not surprised to see the following story of an ABC reporter/producer being shoved into traffic, then arrested via the always-popular choke hold:

ABC Reporter Arrested

I've had a few run-ins with the DPD myself (but I have never been arrested) and have to say that the behavior they exhibit here is not out of the norm. It's their city and we're lucky they can't shoot you for holding a Diet Coke -- oh, wait... apparently they can.
