Good post, potstirer. What back again described involved the Sheriff's Dept, not the SFPD.
Back again, if you are going to level accusations or bring up past court cases, at least get the name of the law enforcement agency involved correct ! BTW, the word "cop" usually refers to a Police Officer; so the correct word in your examples would have been "Deputy".....The court cases involved Deputies, not Cops.

Ok well i clearly never said that these events were of the current sfpd doing. I said cops around here.

The court cases involved Deputies, not Cops.

if you feel the need for the town police force to exist along with state troopers, sherifs, DEC and Park police all in the same area then you got something wrong. why spend so much money over-paying the town police when the job can easily be done by other departments.

well theres not really any DEC or park police in cities and seneca falls doesn't have a village so there goes two of the three. what am i suppose to look at? the other towns that don't have their own police forces because they don't have a village?

I know SF does't have a Village, and YES DEC and Park Police drive through Cities, just like they drive through Seneca Falls. Cities are in NY State which are in the DEC's and Park Police patrol areas, they don't drive down the road and stop at city limit sign and turn around. There are numerous other Towns that have a PD. Once again, Probably an ex-townie who complained about the Villagers forcing "them" to pay more tax due to the dissolution, but wants to do the same by having SCSD hire more deputies which the whole county will have to pay for.....

I keep bringing up the example of the town of Victor (about the same population as Seneca Falls). Their closer to Rochester and have a major mall within it's town limits. They don't have a local police force and there is no anarchy in the streets.
