Now think about that for a moment, Lexington has five times a many people, but only needs 50% more cops.
Do you know why? Now, I'm not kidding, I'm serious. Do you have any idea why it is that Lexington needs so many fewer police to uphold the law than is needed in Portland, Maine?
Alas
Wow, you've done your homework. Now, tell me why we need so proportionately fewer cops.
