Or is it the elimination of the “ walkie talkie on a stick “ , leading to crimes discovered well after the fact, people not reporting crime because they don’t want to stick around for hours waiting for the police to do nothing more than take a report, or folks with payback on their minds that are going to “ handle business “ in their own fashion?
