Number one was probably still waiting on yall to serve restraining orders. Ask me how I know.
Yes it will.... yall have made it clear for years. They know the punishment will be minimal, they know yall are drowning in cases, they know your dept is stretched thin because the city/county chooses to allocate funds towards stupid shit and paying peanuts to those who are hired to try and clean up the mess the democratic party has caused election after election. Stop lying to everyone. Sad to know the city chooses to pay sanitation dept more than LEOs.... hence you being undermanned constantly. P.S. dont get mad and target me either bc im pointing out the elephant in the room that literally everyone knows is there. Be mad at you for shafting your manpower to stay in office.... sometimes its best to fold while money is still on the table, cut your losses, and go home.
