Backwards.
What we want is the police to prevent crime, not stop it.
Their role in that project is not to solve every crime but catch every criminal.
I imagine they do not do well from that metric either.
In too many places the police are the army of the rich controlling the plebians
- mschuster91 3y ago> What we want is the police to prevent crime, not stop it. Police aren't a hammer, that is the first problem. A lot of crime comes from poverty, drug usage and mental health issues. Fix that and crime goes down, without the followup costs of throwing people into jail where nothing improves in their lives.
- quickthrower2 3y agoYou need to solve most crimes to catch every criminal, because of justice. And the simple problem of knowing who the criminals are.
