Police officers' actions were 'wrong': NYPD apologizes for Stonewall riots, 50 years later

Commissioner apologizes for StonewallNew York City's police commissioner apologized Thursday for the 1969 police raid at the Stonewall Inn that catalyzed the modern LGBTQ rights movement.

Speaking to a crowd gathered at Police Headquarters for a Pride Month safety briefing, Commissioner James O'Neill said that "the actions taken by the NYPD were wrong."

Nearly 50 years ago, police raided a Greenwich Village gay bar just after midnight on June 28, 1969, claiming that the bar had violated liquor laws. Patrons and others fought back against the officers, spurring days of protests and a wave of activism.

"I think it would be irresponsible of me, as we go through World Pride Month, not to speak of the events at the Stonewall Inn in June of 1969," O'Neill said in a statement published on Twitter.

Boeing pilots losing skills

Automation has made planes safer and more efficient, but the crashes of two Boeing 737 Max jets is leading some to wonder if there is a dangerous flip side.

While advanced autopilots and computers are now considered an integral part of any modern jetliner, many pilots worry that the systems are detracting from developing and maintaining their own abilities.

"We’ve been talking about this in the industry for years. Pilots are losing their basic flying skills and there’s an overreliance on automation," said Les Westbrooks, an associate professor at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, after the latest 737 Max crash, an Ethiopian Airlines flight in March.

    Women Sexually Abused By Catholic Nuns Speak Up: She Told Me It Was ‘God’s Love’

    Women sexually abused by nuns speak out

    The predator nun walked into Trish Cahill’s life straight out of the blue, on a busy summer day in the late 1960s.

    Cahill was a teenager back then, wire thin with long, chestnut brown hair framing her face. She was babysitting her cousins in Glen Rock, New Jersey, and there were eight of them to look after ― a big Catholic family, much like her own.

    One cousin was playing outside that day and Cahill had another little one in a high chair in the kitchen. It was quite a common child care tactic at the time, she said ― stick a kid in a playpen in the yard and watch through the window while doing chores and taking care of the others inside.
