Show some cops and crime goes down. "The Arcata Police Department had previously employed park rangers, but budget cuts had eliminated the position, he said. The few years they went without the rangers, many felt Redwood Park went from a family-friendly park to an unsafe area with criminal activity. With the passing of Measure G, APD was able to fund those positions, and families, joggers and other Arcata residents have been returning."
So, any city planning on firing cops--like Oakland is going to fire 80--is planning on a crime increase. Then they will be able to go to a bond or tax increases and blackmail the community into raising taxes instead of government cutting non essential services.
This is a con game by government--and it almost always works. What would I do? If my city council tried this I would release a list of non essential services, and corruption that could be ended to save the cops. If the council refuses, I would work full time to Recall all these con men, and women.
Stop the tax increase con game.
