Anything the police buy SHOULD be paid for by taxpayers, if they’re a ‘Public Service’ they should be paid with public money and like any other government job have any private funding be banned. If we’re gonna have a police force I’d rather it not be semi privatized.
Absolutely correct. The reality is that the money they’re referring to was straight-up stolen from random civilians. Any time they say something wasn’t paid for by tax payers, that means it was funded entirely by civil asset forfeiture.
If it wasn’t it would have to be private donations and neither should be acceptable. The cops should have exactly what elected officials deem they should have.
