    Comments on police budgets (culled from LE subforum thread)

    "We believe police need higher training standards, more training in community diversity, more training in less-lethal methods, more training in subliminal bias, and greater less-lethal resources. That's why we're giving the police less money than they have right now, without all those things."

    There's a hella lot of people who will be shocked in a few months when they are personally affected by the budget cuts they are calling for now.

    Those weren't supposed to affect the quality of THEIR police service!!!

    Crazy. Maybe the city plans to turn over 1/6th of the city to Antifa so it will even out. What are they planning? Escape from New York the reality show? Next it will be Soylent green the cooking show. Bring on the scoops

    Problem is that there is greater than 75% chance (and I’m being conservative here) that the folks who need to be impacted by their decisions will not. The class of people pushing these agendas can afford a healthy crew of PMC’s to keep their assets and asses safe.

    Do you think that might amp up gun sales, carry permits and SD classes? I don't personally know anyone who trains SD but I'm thinking that it might be a lucrative bidness in the not too distant future. Of course you would have to stay at a Holiday Inn and eat burgers but it might be money for nothing and chicks for free.

    As an aside, I just went looking for a pretty common bullet, 9mm 124 FMJ ball. Looked in all my usual places, about 5, and nada. Now come on, there should be warehouses full of 9 mm ball, but there ain't. Did the nat'l guards place an order for 5 million rounds and the ammo companies suck it all up? I found some but damn, I had to drill deep. I'm glad i bought 20 lbs of powder before the SHTF.

    There might well be budget cuts caused by falling tax revenues caused by the economic shut down because of the COVID19 pandemic.
