Bad Boys Coming For You, Maybe

I'm browsing through articles when I find this: Los Angeles Schools Police Chief to Become Top Cop in Nevada City

I hadn't heard this or read it anywhere. Anywho, the just of the article isn't what caught my attention. It was the size comparison of police forces.

Alan Kerstein headed the 335-officer LAUSD police department. LAUSD has 746,800 students -- Ratio is 1 cop to 2230 students

Henderson's police department has 267 officers in a city of more than 225,000 residents -- Ratio is 1 cop to 842 residents

And we wonder why we have issues?

You forgot, the ratio of criminals to non-criminals is ALSO much higher at LAUSD.

Huizar hired 35 more LAUSD Police when he was there. Does this help count?
