This is why I weep for the future

“News” articles like this:

https://www.wxyz.com/news/cops-keeping- ... this-month

<sign>

Why not “Cops enforcing laws this month” or “Cops doing their job this month”?

What’s the next headline? “Pimps selling hoes this month.”

RE: "Drivers who fail to stop at crosswalks "... I wonder how many cops even know what the law really is??

Also, re: "The enforcement campaign is supported with federal traffic safety funds"... it's pretty disgusting that the federal government is involved in the enforcement of local laws like this AT ALL. I wonder how much of that money gets "lost" between the collection point (IRS) and the distribution point, and wasted at some federal level. If folks want heightened enforcement, it should be fully funded at the local or state level.
What you just said is brilliant.

I weep for the future of news, not the future of male meat packers and lickalotofpusses.

This doesn't look very Detroit radio related to me
First post. Apparently Detroit law enforcement is enforcing the law and someone thought it was newsworthy.
