How right you are. Not only do they increase crime, they also place an additional burden on the penal system. Our prisons are overloaded with criminals that have taken advantage of the surplus police that are trying to justify their pay by causing more crime.

Why stop there? Have you seen what the average firefighter makes and how their pensions are structured? It's a known fact an over-abundance of firefighters is the cause of the rapidly increasing numbers of fires.
