Good on the cop. He represents the finest of us.

I bet within the hour he trades those new shoes for $10 worth of booze or drugs.

The thought crossed my mind as well. Further support for this notion: ask yourself why he was sitting barefoot in front of a shoe store. Seems rather convenient, no?
When I was working in NYC I commuted from NJ down to Water St. every day. I frequently took the ferry from Hoboken to Battery Park. Every day at 5:30pm there was the same ragged-looking-but-not-totally-destitute woman standing at the exit ramp holding out an empty foam coffee cup.
She probably earned more than I did each day.
