- Karunamon 14y agoSince the crap when!? Last I checked, police and most of their superiors aren't subject to recalls or indeed any accountability whatsoever. (Would be an interesting scenario.. individual officers elected on popular vote..)
- genwin 14y agoThe police are accountable to elected representatives. Therefore the taxpayers are responsible for their police dept., and owe money to the victims when their police go astray. I chose my town in part because of its professional police dept., which in turn implies smart voters.
