If locals can’t do the policing, then expect jack booted Gestapo under orders from our own Hitler in the White House to take over..
A federal police force is coming, no doubt. What they will replace is the small town good ole’ boy corrupt to the core police forces. You know, the ones that the cops, chief and judge all work together to shake the citizens down with trumped-up charges and vehicle infractions.
They kind of brought it on themselves actually. The future should be interesting.
