well certainly you have to prove that, you made a claim to which you have zero statistics or a study to demonstrate the feasibility. It does seem you have no information to make such a claim.Well, I have way too many replies to respond to them all on this thread, so I will just say that we need two officers to every patrol car and the officers need better training. That much is obvious, I think.
Two officers per patrol car is a waste of resources. The majority of police interactions are uneventful and positive.
Not at all. It would save tons in lawsuits.
Prove it.
Prove that two cops instead of one will keep people from filing lawsuits against police.
I don't have to prove anything. However, the fact that an officer is not alone on patrol will help save officer lives (immediate backup, instead of having to call and wait for it to show up), and this will also save citizen lives because the officer may not have to resort to using his gun if there is another officer to help restrain a suspect.
I don't have to prove anything. I think it is a good idea and better than anything you have come up with, which is a big fat ZERO.
