The long arm of the law came to Cambridge Thursday night--jerked along by some furry friends. Of course, the milling crowd can't really complain; instead of heading home had another hour or two of entertainment. And of course generations of wayward students were vindicated. Cops it seems are indeed subhuman.

Still, beatings and bitings aside, we ask: why isn't there ever an MDC police dog available to help patrol the Weeks Bridge? It isn't fair to deprive the townies of all that fun.
