Yep, except at best we'll probably ever get is local government to pay, which means the community pays for the destruction and the cost of cleaning up after.

  > the community pays They should. The community elects the leaders who control the police. The incentives align pretty well.

    Except often the police (via their union) exert control over the leaders :/

      I agree that it could be difficult, but we need to address it head-on. We have an adversarial situation developing between the public and the police. Solving that will be hard, but one of the first things we need to do is figure out how to put the police back under control of the politicians. And then we can work on getting people to look outside their filter bubble and pay attention to who they are electing.
