ALSO - The chiefs who own guns got a chance to sell them off !
In my case it's the towing contractors making the money, for now anyway. Perhaps they pay a percentage of their revenue to the police.
And I am sure the revenue base from traffic violations is down due to reduced traffic. Not so sure cops are literally out for money, it just so happens that on any given day a police dept brings in substantial amounts, justified in that they are maintaining law and order.
