    I agree with you and I really do not like modern policing at all. Just like the post office we shouldn’t evaluate it simply on the most discrete of monetary accounting. However in this case I prsonally feel like the response was disproportionate in both money and execution wise comapred to even the desired goal, which takes a little longer to say but has a teeny bit of nuance to it.

    The downvotes you’re getting are wild to me, I feel like everything you said was objectively true, and without personal opinion even. If someone has an issue with what the police are doing here it’s not hard to look further than the money in vs. money out equation, and it is lazy to lean on only that financial argument.
