When the cops in DC aren't busy chasing crooks around the Capitol, they seem to spend a lot of time writing e-mail. Most of it involves legitimate police business, but plenty of it doesn't, admits Police Chief Charles Ramsey. Worse, a lot of the messages contain racist, vulgar and homophobic language aimed largely at those the coppers are sworn to protect and serve. Ramsey, whose office has been auditing the e-mail for about three weeks, says white, black and Hispanic officers have all been involved in the extracurriculars and he promises swift justice once things are wrapped up.
