I'm afraid that my own views are pretty much based on experience. Like the fact that pretty much all the Important People in Maryland Public Safety are old friends from one of the previous governor's regimes. And as far as I can tell, all they ever do is sit around in meetings and plan...more meetings.
Meanwhile, people like my boss who actually do know a thing or two about public safety are driving desks for two-bit units with nothing more than limited police authority.
(And Bobby's agency with the feds...I won't even start on that. It'd take more comments than I think you'd care to read, and I don't feel like getting angry this late at night.)
