The police don't make the laws, the people you elect make them and then expect the police to enforce them.
You want it both ways, you want police out of your life and at the same time be pro active, Make up your mind.
The Charter places strict limits on how pro active police can be.
There's no contradiction between wanting fewer police interactions for **** like open container violations or jaywalking or sleeping on a park bench and ensuring someone is able to actually investigate violent crimes.
Some of it is also personnel. There is large rural area on the west side of our city the police call the Wild West. Not because it is any wilder than anywhere else, they just don't have the personnel to patrol it.
Doesn't that say something about the value of patrolling?
