How do you think you get actual experience as an attorney without starting in law school? Timid prosecutors are not what the original comment implied. That’s why I said some information was missing.

Nice try with the humble brag of law school. Sorry, law school isn't impressive. Actual experience is.
Yes, they don't teach stuff in law school about how some prosecutors are too scared to take something to trial if it's not a slam dunk case.
Now, run along back to District Court where you get your docket the morning of lol.

So they're not allowed to chase.
There's already been a Dirt Bike Task Force established who investigates these folks and seizes their vehicles.
What would you like to see those patrol officers do? There's no action because they're not allowed to do anything about it.

They don't have enough officers for foot patrol AND patrol function lol. Imagine going to 20 911 calls for service in a single 10 hour shift. You think they got time to walk a beat? At least half those 20 calls require reports to be written.
God forbid they take a 10 minute break to relax in a park.

It's hard to tell by the photo - but the two cops are actually docking through the car windows.

Whenever I walk past a parked police car I look to see what the occupant is doing. Less than 10% of the time they are paying attention to activity on the street and their surroundings. At least half the time they’re looking at their phones.

This is how they meet, when they need to disseminate information face to face they'll do it like this l. Or they will post up in a high crime area like this as well. Most residents from Baltimore city know this because it's been happening sense my mom was a kid.

Why not just “two people?” Or “rescue two from”?

Puddles are known to be 6-8 feet deep.

They’re stationed outside the gymnasium in Patterson park that’s serving thanksgiving food for free to homeless and less fortunate…. And you make fun of them for parking on top of a puddle?

Yesterday a dozen dirt bikers and quads rode past cops on monument. Everyone was laughing at them because they don't do shit. They were talking into the walkies on their person probably telling other squad cars about it but we all know they won't do anything. I know there's a no chase rule but it still looks really bad to see no action.

They serve different purposes. Ideally you have both. But there's not enough officers for both. Cops in cars cover posts or certain geographies. It's harder to cover those on foot

Law school is not experience. It's a school environment. That's like saying police officers know how to testify well on the stand because they went to a police academy. Not the case.
The original comment implied rapists (and other criminals) are let go. I'm attributing that to timid prosecution.
