"Fuck the police!" The protest refrain provokes feelings of sympathy, ambivalence, or dismay, depending on the listener. It is also the inspiration for a song by the rap group N.W.A., and a young man named Cesar Baldelomar was blasting that song from his car last Thanksgiving when Hialeah, Florida, police officer Harold Garzon took offense.
"Really?" Garzon allegedly said to Baldelomar. "You're really playing that song? Pull over."
