https://www.insideedition.com/tiny-texas-town-with-250-residents-and-50-cops-fires-its-entire-police-department-after-ticket
The town had 250 people and 50 police officers.
The shocking part is where it says that's only 5X the cops for a town that size. Wtf? One or two should suffice in a town that small. We have a town here with just over a thousand, and they have no city cops at all.
Read the article. It explains the scam and why it got shut down.
I read the article. How do you think I got that information that was in the article? I understand what was going on. What I don't understand is the average town of that size even needing 10. How about some reading comprehension, smart guy?
POOP?
Username checks out.
I thought piefed people were required to be nice?
That's it, dock their social credit score (is that still a thing on piefed?)
