And what is wrong with our policing the way it is now? Enforcing the law and protecting our citizens is their job. They do it very well. Having additional help also works well – drug and alcohol counselors, mental health professionals, etc. – but not at the expense of the police.
Most animosity toward the police is because you’ve done something wrong. Stay within the law and you learn to respect them. Council should forget its loyalty to its political party and do what is best for its constituents.
