#5 The party-goers denied shouting “anti-Islamic abuse” and said the policewoman “took offense” at the parody song being played, prompting her to call up the unnecessary reinforcements. A bit of a overkill on calling out the forces. Does this policewoman who was "triggered" happen to be of the Islamic faith? Hey, it was a private party at a nice home. At most they might have violated a noise ordinance.

#7 "Approved List" of songs.

1984 happened so slowly they didn't notice until now.

#8 So rather than punishing the officer for inappropriately pressing the oh shit button, scrambling the quick reaction force and putting those officers' lives and those in their path in danger, they blame the party goers and steal private property, presumably for face-saving and justification for the x money and reason to scramble. Officer no-name indeed.

Oh, and the song...it is lewd and shallow and modern pop but it is neither mocking nor racist.

#9 Not even lewd, actually. But accurate, come to think of it. The Taliban now skulk around attacking the people who rule in their place, and Obama son of Laden the Yemeni spent the rest of his life in the squalor of self-imposed house arrest with several competing wives and all their small children.

But it's Cambridge, so I assume they have all the problems of an elite college town.

#10 I think Gorb and Charger hit the nail on the head here. An Islamic officer took offense and the department were terrified not to take her seriously.

#11 Fuck the officer, and every single other officer in the precinct that supported their response to it.
