"Four<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 />
