We really need them too. When policemen in other towns start referring to Palatine as a war zone, I think it's time to admit that the gang infestation is out of control and it requires more bodies out there patrolling and doing cop stuff.

Doing cop stuff is a good way to put it Kelly. Perhaps less time hanging out and more time doing "cop stuff". Need to get out if the squad car once in awhile, see whats really going on.
