Barba: When I was an ADA, the NYPD and the ADA's office commanded a modicum of respect.

I consider myself a nice guy. But I'm not always going to be nice in here. Sometimes I'm going to be loud, angry, as I cross examine witnesses from the VA and NYPD that failed to do their jobs. Anyone have a problem with that?
