Most City Mayors are too political and are mostly unqualified to oversee people who carry guns and make arrests for a living. Many seem to want to use the police as their personal security guard service and exempt both themselves and their friends from any legal repurcussions for violating the law. The state legislature should just merge all police and sheriffs departments into a single state department run by a police commission answering to the Governor. KSP doesn't have near the political interference
