If police presence is an issue, then people need to demand and support a bigger police force in the city in Los Angeles. With the budget cuts and state defecit, we need to decide on ways to hire more police officers to protect and serve their community. People do not like to hear it, but raising some type of taxes would help the situation.

Suspect got away. Code four. Up to the Police Academy for their friday Clam Chowder and bask in self glory, where they first learned their elitist chants...LOL...remember they are the best, they will tell you that .. all other cops envy them, they will tell you that. These LAPD Chief's think they are celebrities. LAPD's hubris has reduced them to an impotent dept. All of their failure to perform, has very little to due with budget constraints, so do not buy their lame excuses.
Shame the City cannot bring in the Sheriff or throw some big money to neigboring Torrance PD to help them out. Even other well regarded Cities, do not want to hire their Capt's, to fill their Chief of Police vacancies (Pasadena, Santa Monica, as recent examples).

LOL, an increase in police officers correlates to an increase in crime.

Old rhetoric. Hiring more LAPD officers would do little in the way of keeping down crime in Wilmington. LAPD cops are mostly spoiled and lazy. Many things are seriously amiss in their training and indoctrination. Their self propaganda is that they are an Elite police dept, and in their Hubris they have morphed into a mediocre police dept. Most of their cops are lazy, doing the minimum and it is an organization focused on in house political correctness and self aggrandizement. They are quite fond of bad mouthing other police depts, from small to large ones, including the Sheriff's Dept. As to the Sheriff's Dept in Compton/Lynwood, an area about the size of the Harbor and historicaly dangerous territory, the Sheriff has seriously reduced crime in world famous violent Compton and held it all down. The thugs are scared of them. Not the case in Wilmington with LAPD. Even Long Beach PD in their bad ass hoods are out hustling LAPD and LBPD is understaffed. LAPD loves to peacock and posture, but very little substance to them in the last two decades.
