Why is it that the state police find it necessary to sit in the middle of the village of Canton and write tickets? Isn’t it the village police’s job to do that? Whenever the issue of dissolution comes up involving village police one of the first things that the state police mention is how they cannot do their patrols and police the village simultaneously. Their argument is that they are already tied up with other tings and would not be able to do both effectively. It seems ironic that the very thing that they say they can’t do they are doing anyways. I wonder if writing tickets is really about safety or just generating revenue for the state. Filling quotas by issuing citations is not serving and protecting.
