it's getting pretty near to game-over for policing as it exists.

Hyperbolic hysterics.

[eno_]

Of couse not a single word to refute my post #50:

$120k per cop per year.

4-5 reported crimes per cop per year.

Solution rates that range from an acceptable 70% for murder to abysmal for property crime.

Cost to solve a single serious crime in NYC: $25,000 to $30,000.

Those are the facts.

The performance and productivity of police SUCKS.

The face of policing today is Chief Moose: Ph.D., and not a two neurons to rub together in his thick skull. And Moose is not one of the dirty ones. Lift any rock in any big-city PD and you find a corruption scandal.

Supporting police is no longer a conservative position.
