selkirk Posted August 3, 2004 Posted August 3, 2004 FEWER POLICE He said the city spends about $1 billion a year to battle terrorism and that Washington was, "still not providing us with the support we need to ensure the safety of American citizens and they are not providing any alternatives either." The city now has 4,000 fewer police than on Sept. 11, 2001, and this year New York was given $5.47 per head in homeland security grants -- the second lowest in the nation. from Here! My question is what's more dangerous? Having fewer police employed and on duty or the terrorists? In Seattle the government is about to release something like 1/2 of it's Parol officers due to budget shuffling and increased spending on homeland security. Now doesn't that make everyone warm and fuzzy knowing that people who are out on Parol are going to be at the very least much less supervised, if they're being supervised at all. Quote
