      It was a great message but it doesn’t work as a slogan or rallying call - (delay) deny and defend are their tactics, that was the joke.

      The NYPD already clarified that the shell casing said “delay”, not “defend”. Please stop spreading misinformation.

        Actually, it was 4 casings, saying Delay, Deny, Depose, and Defend. Also, even if it wasn’t, “misinformation” is WAY too dramatic a term to use for making a common mistake about a word when that word is usually used to describe deliberately spreading disinformation.

        Besides, speaking of misinformation, “the NYPD clarified” doesn’t hold a lot of weight without confirmation from a more trustworthy source.
