    My town’s police department posts info on wanted criminals on FB and people comment on the posts basically doing the cops’ jobs for them. Every person who has been posted about has been caught. The cops here rely on the public to catch criminals and they’re shameless about it. Meanwhile they spend their time on duty harassing people who ride ebikes.

      Sounds like how the East German Stasi did things.

      If you tell me that 65% of your towns entire budget goes to “law enforcement”, I would not be surprised at all.
