Robocop?

I am reading The Caves of Steel again and wonder about your bipedal officers.  R. Daneel Olivaw was both bipedal and an officer.  Since it would be very unusual to state the obvious fact that a human officer is bipedal, maybe he is speaking of a robot.  Perhaps Tristan had also been reading Asimov recently as well.

Police shouldn't be concerned with quality of life for anyone but themselves.  I can imagine that career police officers would be insulted by such a thing.  Think of it:  you invest your life toward a career as a policeman only to be stuck in such a job, working outside your chosen career path.  Oh how I can relate.

Speed traps  aren't about enforcing laws or even improving the qulity of life or the community.  It's glorified tax collection, nothing more.

I'll be the police union in Missoula is as upset about all this as you are.
