Has police force been cut back in your neck of the woods?
Just heard a guy on CNN (I think they said he was retired FBI) say that the local police force of Atlanta had been cut 20%. (I think he said Atlanta)
Don't forget, anybody--we got the LONESTARNUT/HUNGER WATCH going on right now, although it's a little early yet, and it goes on for four years--chronicling hunger in the 0bamareich as complained by the primitives; and if one spots a fat primitive whining of hunger through January 20, 2013, it's worth $5 from my wallet to conservativecave.
It's another big bonfire, so only the Primitives of Prominence.
First up, the dysmenopausal Kansas school teacher:

1. Yes
Clinton poured money into law enforcement. Bush cut the funding.

4. Not here!
We ALWAYS have a total of four officers on duty at any one time
(little ag town in middle of San Joaquin Valley)
And then the grouchy old primitive, commenting on a comment by an unterprimitiven that he needs to carry guns to guard against snakes on his exclusive desert-front real-estate:

30. You carry a gun for snakes?
Worried they are going to chase you down and bite ya?
Your joking right?
Wouldn't it be easier to just walk away from them?

16. That was one of the things the GWB admin did - it cut the community policing grants so that local law enforcement couldn't afford new hires. It replaced the community policing grants with terrorism grants so that LEO could buy weapons (e.g. tasers), equipment and have anti-terrorism training and those monies went to private corps that supplied and/or trained the LEO in anti-terrorism tactics.
Oh, the tax cuts meant less money to the state and local governments and that resulted in higher local/state taxes and cuts to schools and LEO, if folks retired or left for other jobs they slots were not always filled due to lack of adequate funding.
And of course there is a percentage of the LEO force that were weekend guardsmen that became active duty warriors thanks to GWB's wars.
That's all the Primitives of Prominence at this bonfire.

Invisible COPS
How Clinton's plan to field 100,000 new police turned into a pork barrel as usual.

Coach, if those cops cut into their weed stashes, they don't want them.

Why do they want more cops? The libtards release violent offenders early anyways.
As always the DUmp personifies the term: Oxymoron.

FYI - merh is another Sun Herald forum poster except there she goes by DogLady and used to go by MerriamDOQ (I don't know why). She knows everything about everything so don't even try to challenge her on her areas of expertise which again is everything.

Cutting police funding is an odd behavior for a would-be dictator.

Yeah, the "merh" primitive, the methamphetimine primitive from southernmost Mississippi.
Some of us became rather well-aquainted with the methamphetimine primitive circa four years ago, during Doug's ex-wife's Great Mischief.
Trust me, the "merh" primitive is a moonbat, and not only in her stupid politics. Her cerebral workings are moonbat, her body structure is moonbat, her appearance is moonbat; just all really grotesque. The methamphetimine primitive not only is a moonbat, but she looks exactly as one might imagine a moonbat looks like.
In other words, pretty much a waste of skin and hair.

The criminals spend less time at the station than the cops do.

That was my thought too, when copying-and-pasting it.

And they most especially don't want more drug cops.
:-)

Ok I'm confused I thought the police were a fascist group all controlled by Teh Rove so why would they want more of them?
-
That was before last Tuesday.
After that, killing brown people is good, cops are good.
Hmmm next they will be saying the US is a wonderful place. :lmao:

My first encounter with mehr was not pretty. My first post was asking the general group of posters how I could get an excuse from state court jury duty. This jury duty consisted of being on call for eight weeks and to be available every Monday morning in case they needed a jury. Now, I'm not opposed to jury duty but on call for eight weeks? Really? I own my own small business with no employees and part of my agreement with my doctors is that I am available 8-5 M-F in case they need something right away for good patient care.
Anyway, I got the lecture from Miss Constitution herself about serving on jury duty and that serving on jury duty is way more important than working to support myself and my family. That went on for days with the back and forth until I finally just ignored her.
