On Tuesday morning @NYPDnews made a request on Twitter asking users to post positive photographs of their interactions with New York Police Officers, using the hash tag #mynypd . Unfortunately many users posted negative interactions with the police department, see the examples below, I'm certain there are positive photo's out there, just very difficult to locate. I hope the Los Angeles Police Department or Sheriff's Department doesn't try this PR tactic as well?
* I succeeded in discovering three positive photos of people with the New York Police, which was the objective for the campaign
** NYPD Deputy Chief Kim Royster said in a statement, "The NYPD is creating new ways to communicate effectively with the community. Twitter provides an open forum for an uncensored exchange and this is an open dialogue good for our city,"
