The Police in Minneapolis, Crime it totally put of control

[sid]

I thought things were bad in Philly. But you simply won't believe what the perps are getting away with in this city and the utter failure of police to respond to 911 calls even when an officer is in danger.

Maybe they need a "Stand your Ground" law

However Philadelphia is in Pennsylvania which has a pretty good "shall issue" CCW law which a clerk in a phone store recently put to good use,

At least part of the problem is attributed to a lack of officers. Possibly pay more and get recruits. But, that treads on the toes of those who don't want to pay higher taxes, etc. So, what to do? In the current low unemployment economy, few folks are going to willingly take less pay when they can do better for themselves in other employment. Sincerely. bruce.

Let me guess -- Minneapolis has a Democrat administration?

You can throw all the money you want, unless cops feel supported by any administration why do the job? Remember in Chicago when the previous administration sold the cops down the road to appease gang bangers? The cops backed off policing and the community went further to hell. Our S.O. gets support of the communities outside of the cities/villages and the deputies know it. During the fall I drop cakes and cookies for my friends. In January I see them at the gym bitching to me that their pistol belts don't want to fit and it is my fault!
