I remember daddy Daley saying that one and a whole lot other Yogi Berra type quotes.

“The policeman isn’t there to create disorder; the policeman is there to preserve disorder.” Richard J. Daley quote

Maybe he was misquoted, by someone that doesn't understand a New York Italian accent:

"The policeman isn't there to create dis order; the policeman is there to preserve dis order."

I think that it is actually a brilliant observation, that police don't make the rules, dey only enforce them. :>)
