I grew up in Nassau County a few towns to the west of where Carolyn is from. I don't know about today, but I can say that the NCPD back in the 80s (with some notable exceptions) were neither the most competant, nor the most honest.

A kid I went to school with was notorious for vandalizing property and, on at least one occassion, breaking into a house. His daddy was a Looey in the NCPD, so he got a free pass. Don't get me started on the fact that a disproportonate number of the druggies I knew had daddies on the NCPD.

Despite the high property taxes, and higher salaries paid to the NCPD relative to the city, the NYPD is still a much more professional organization.

You’ll get exactly NO quarrel from me, C. I’ve never had dealings with NCPD, but the one time I had them with NYPD did nothing but increase my respect for those chaps. Doing an impossible job, and still managing mostly to keep civilisation going in NYC.

She was also on C-Span this morning.

I believe that while on c-span she actually said that we need to ban felons from buying weapons!

This has been illegal for ~30 years! She totally clueless.

I was going to mention that but didn’t want to sound ethnocentric or politically incorrect.

Well I might need to go to rehab, but the last time a school was shot up in Virginia, the student wasn't born here either.
