Aside from the transparency issue, did you see how much it's going to cost?

Four hundred million dollars! The city is cutting back on pretty much everything else but wants to spend that on police radios.

Everyone has to tighten their belts while the thin blue line gets fatter and more dangerous.

No matter what it costs, we will shield police from accountability.

Name a price and go fuck yourself.

One city's cops want more than a dollar per US citizen for something I could personally implement for a small group of people?
