"Four<br />

departments, were suspended without<br />
pay for building a racist float<br />
seen in the Labor Day parade held in<br />
Queens.<br />
The officers, identified as<br />
Timothy O'Connell, Keith Miller,<br />
Teddy Rauert and Kevin Gill, were<br />
responsible for depicting the lynching<br />
of James Byrd in Jasper, <strong>Texas</strong><br />
on the float they rode in the parade.<br />
They had blackened their face<br />
and were ridding on top of pick up<br />
truck with a sign proclaiming "Black<br />
to the Future." The incident has<br />
drawn sham reaction from city leaders,<br />
including Rev. Al Sharpton and<br />
Mayor Rudy Guiiiani.<br />
Sharpton, who lead a prayer<br />
vigil Sept. 12 in the Broad Channel<br />
area of Queens in response to the<br />
incident, called it the most "ridiculous,<br />
insensitive and offensive" thing<br />
he can recall. He said it was an insult<br />
