Yet another solution looking for a problem [portion removed.] This is not Baltimore or Chicago - we don't need any civilian oversight of police. This is s typical Joe Simitian left wing idea.
We need more police to combat the rising crime problem caused by endless expancion of Palo Alto.

A "rising crime problem in Palo Alto"? Seriously?
You really have no idea what you're talking about.
