Valin Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 PJ Media: Bryan Preston 8/20/12 HIDALGO COUNTY, TEXAS — Every year, the federal government doles out roughly a billion taxpayer dollars to local law enforcement agencies in the form of grants. These agencies — city police and constables, state agencies, county sheriffs — apply for the grants through the Department of Justice’s COPS (for Community Oriented Policing Services) program and use them to hire more personnel, purchase vehicles and equipment, and enhance their crime-fighting capabilities. But do the federal grants actually help fight crime? (Snip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
