        There are 4 of you. 4. You probably are more of a burden on the tax payer than hiring out a neighboring town.

        Agreed. I live in ME in a town with approx. 1200 residents and we don't have a force. State police step in when needed.

        Good for them. It's better they recognized their weaknesses and quit than to waste taxpayers' money for nothing.

        I don't blame them. It's a very dangerous occupation, and the pay is too little. This kind of thing can happen in more places if we don't get with the program. Just think for a moment if the police stop protecting you in your town. You would be lucky to live out the night. Think.

        It isn't a very dangerous profession, workplace injuries and deaths among police are low compared to many other professions that have worse pay and much worse benefits. It is a very stressful profession, with a lot of officers retiring with psychological disability pay.
