I really enjoyed the cover story on the police brutality in the Area 2 headquarters [“Town Without Pity,” January 12]. I couldn’t believe all of the wrongdoings that are going on in the Chicago police force.

I agree with you 100 percent. We should do something about the leniency that we give officers that we find out used brute force to get a confession out of someone or just trying to get off for the night. The way these men were treated during questioning and the initial arrest was chilling. Somewhere in my mind I really only believed that such things only happened in the movies or on Cops.

Every one of us needs a reality check when it comes to the homeless and the destitute of the world. Just because I don’t have as much as you is no reason for you to treat me like dirt or anything beneath it.
