Editors. Cold, heartless editors. Everything you've ever heard about them is true.

(Just kidding. But I do miss the bear, no matter how illogical it is.)

Item two on the litany of lunacy: An excerpt of an AP story which ran in Wednesday's Crimson.

"A transsexual woman has filed a lawsuit alleging that police stormed her apartment and terrorized her family because they disapproved of her gender change."

The New York woman's lawsuit alleges that following an emergency medical phone call, two cops forcibly entered her apartment and beat the occupants, including her mother, siblings and a neighbor; that they called her a slew of names; that they used Mace; that they trashed the apartment; that they tranquilized two dogs, one of which later had to be put down; and that they stole money.

It also says she was taken to a psychiatric ward and detained there until the next day, while her family and neighbor were arrested and charged with felonies. (The story says the charges were subsequently dismissed.)

The cops used Mace on her dogs because they didn't like her sex change?
