I am not a LMPD officer and don't even live near Louisville. However, I do sympathize with the officers. I am only guessing that these officers are not highly paid employees and did not choose to become police officers in hopes of getting rich. These guys took the job at hand for the satisfaction, benefits and prestige of being a police officer. To take a $60 fee for them to take home their units is a slap in the face to them and their families. This act alone will deter potential police officers
