Just a guy

Trust me, people feel that it's ok to pull up to a marked car and talk and text so they aren't going to be on the lookout for unmarked cars.
These cars are purchased from the state contract and the prices to the PD are not as costly as it is to the general public.
Even if they are a few inches higher, they are patrol vehicles and will be used for other purposes, not just traffic enforcement. The NYSP is always obtaining new vehicles and these will just be a little higher.
The increased summons revenue will help pay for many of these vehicle.
Lastly, if this idea is one of the dumbest thing you've heard since being on this site then you obviously don't read some of the posts that carefully.

Gimme a break. They're doing their job!

Welcome to the real world Speaker Quinn.

It's funny how when many of us came on the job, we were looked down upon by the rest of society because we were "only" civil servants.
Now because we have done well for ourselves, we are under attack, we really can't win

Unfortunately with the bias on this board, remove firefighter from the first sentence and replace with police officer, and everyone will go nuts with how it is unsafe, they are untrained, unprepared, unprotected. I for one am getting real sick of it.

If you say so.

Given that a very quick Internet search also yields a number of stories regarding actions by off-duty FF's that have never been addressed on this Board, I think there must be more to the story.
I mean, not a single one of those stories, (including two notable local stories, one from Westchester and one from NYC) have made it to EMTBravo, have they?
I loathe to assume that certain parties have such vile for the rare moment that LEO's get positive accolades, but, it's starting to seem pretty clear.
What else can explain this apparent double standard?

We were actually asked to vote on the new color scheme. A majority of the department picked this design over 2 others. It's usually tough to get cops excited about anything but guys are very excited to get the new cars on the road.

Good to see you posting again. Thanks for the information, hope the new vehicles are serving the dept well.

Congratulations on a well deserved promotion ! PO Marcano has brought great honor to himself, his family, the NYPD and all of Law Enforcement.
In my opinion, this case shouldn't even go to a grand jury, the powers that be should do their investigation and call it a clean shoot and thats the end of it.

All I can say is, thank God I don't live in Colorado or Washington.

Before I even attempted to read this garbage, I saw that these 2 windbags are from berkley and that was it for me.
You can't figure out how a city needs to be policed using mathmatic equations, you figure it out by working an early tour in my precinct in the middle of the summer during a heatwave.
There is no reason to give this report any creedence.
I say print it out and toss it in the circular file.
