To employ and run a police force costs biggum bucks. I could tolerate a lot of loud music as I think the system we have, using local law enforcement is good. Village Watch driving around checking things is not only a deterrent but a wise thing to see if people have left their garage doors up or someone is strolling around that doesn't look right. I like how things are.

Plus I really have a major hearing loss.
