Resources. It takes several cops to effect an arrest in such a situation. It's not just the guys in the front. And for every one you take out of service, you reduce your ability to control the space. 10 arrests can tie up 30-40 badges pretty quickly.
That said, your sentiment is spot on. Hook...
Most of the time it's to avoid generating complaints. I fielded one on one of my guys two weeks ago for 3 over on IN38. Caller-identified 3 over, not what the "offender" said when I notified him of the complaint.
If we drive with traffic we get called in on. If we drive slower than traffic...
Some were, obviously; they were the ones sounding the alarm. But at a wide scale? I doubt it. Everything in that age was a miracle. Plastics, pesticides, semiconductors, vaccines, everything. It was a generation that went from outhouses and horse drawn plows to the moon. There was no problem...
We gave the money in part because the EU promised that THIS time, they will for sure, most definitely, positively gear up their arms manufacturing to provide the one million promised artillery shells along with other munitions. I suspect that if the front is lost and Ukranian forces begin a...

Kinda like those TV evangelists receiving funding from fixed-income folks on the premise of "its what Jesus wants you to do".
Or, "Send a one-time...
For commemorative items, I want the mere sight of the object to bring back a flood of positive memories. It should take you back to stories, feelings, and relationships. It doesn't matter what the object IS, it's what it is connected to. With that as the marker, the object must be pleasing in...
Lol, sounds sexy so it got the lead.
Believe me, this isn't a drop in the bucket compared to the "theft tourism" we get from Marion and Madison counties.
43f-ish water temp, 45f-ish air temp. Winds at 13mph, gusting to 20. That's not a pleasant immersion, and cold enough of a water temp initiate a gasp reflex. 6 feet is deep enough that you wouldn't touch bottom, and in a stricken state one generally won't drive down to find out if it's another 6...
I dunno. Short of Federal troops being mustered against Americans on a wide scale, I don't see anything "kicking off". Might see some more McVeigh-type incidents.
