Letter: Fire Philbert!

James Philbert's acting career must be immediately brought to an end!

How dare he apologize to panmen for pre-Independence police action against them?

Back in those days, it was against the law to beat pan!

All the police, then, were doing was their job!

Their job was, as it still is, not to make law, but to uphold it!

And, back then, uphold it they did, for every manjack/womanjenny set about his/her assignment with a zeal that's completely missing from the present police corps.

If Philbert want to earn our kudos, let him galvanize his underlings to resort to the lofty policing standards of yore!

My God! How Daddy and his many deceased colleagues must be turning in their graves at this gravest of insult from one who's destined to remain a mere pretender to the top-cop throne!

Fire Philbert forthwith! Else, the next thing he'd do is apologize to the hapless drug addicts for locking them up even as he continues to permit their suppliers to prowl scot-free!
