Hmmmm...where does the money for the "police budget" come from? hahaha

No - You weren't following me correctly! - I was saying it the money paid out (lost to this victim) should come out of the ALREADY existing police budget (thus them doing with less) - It should not simply be paid by the tax-payers additionally onto what we already pay to the police department -
You see, this is how it works. Police are sued, they lose and the only real consequence is to the tax-payers ...not to that individual police department - If a police department is sued and losing (in a case such as this) that police department should actually feel the hit! (meaning, no new cars for X number of years, no new uniforms for X number of years, etc, etc - Police departments today get new toys and new gadgets about every month - this should stop and especially STOP in police departments where lawsuits have been lost!).
