You have far more faith in police than I do

We have nontechnical people making legislation about technical things, why do you think police are any different

[incone123]

I don't think non technical people could pursue the investigation at all. I'm technical but not in that specialism so I'd have to do some studying just to get started.

Do you really imagine a patrol cop gets given a computer and told to 'find the suspect'? The legislators have someone else write what they put their name to, so that's not comparable.

No, just one that got promoted to detective
