    So they are using it to try and decide on deployment?

    If that is all they’re using it for I guess it isn’t too bad. As long as it isn’t accusing individuals of planning to commit a crime with a zero evidence.

        The thing is don’t they already have crime stats? Presumably they’re already using them as justification so this won’t change much.
