I actually think more money should be allocated to the police for training and therapy. Now if I'm wrong and someone knows more about this please KINDLY let me know. I don't think police have any type of institution that follows them around. For instance, teachers and nurses have a board that keeps track records on what they've done. So therefore they can't do something terribly wrong in one state and just move to another and get a new job without their record following them. I've heard that police officers can move without their record following them to a new force in a new state. Again, I'm not completely sure if that's true but I'd appreciate it if someone here that has more knowledge on the subject would enlighten me.
I agree. If we believe that there is an issue with our police force, taking money away from them only serves to exacerbate the problem. They need better training and that requires more money.
