Mayor writes letter to citizens addressing downtown safety

The "Pops", standards are in effect there too. Most of their physical training instructors are former KSP. It's not the at your pace cakewalk anymore. T. R. Jude was a tool. He hated recruits from Louisville.

The number from the large counties are far outnumbered by the rural departments most of the time. The KSP academy is much more military than LMPD. A Parris Island copycat with weekends off. Richmond is their Mini Me academy because of all the ex-KSP they have running it. If you have been through both Richmond and the LMPD academy recently then I will buy you a condolence card for that. Putting real vets through militaristic police academies run by people who never spent a day is a big waste of time and money. Practical training simulating real life circumstances are much better. Put them in a little pretend town and let them be the police like some other academies.
