Wouldn't be a cop in this town for love nor money.  We want them to do societies dirty work and then often criticize/second guess the hell out of them when they don't do it "nicely".  Meanwhile, it's "open season" on cops for no other reason that they are cops. One reason there isn't enough cops on bike paths and elsewhere is because the City spends too much money on non-essential positions like PR/marketing, spokespersons, training coordinators,etc. Your sarcastic comment about cops in doughnut shops is bull.
