Bless them one and all. A city like that isn't worth of their service.

They haven't quit the force, only the voluntary rapid response team. the PPB’s entire Rapid Response Team has “resigned their spots in the voluntary assignment” because of Budworth’s indictment.
I really don't understand why every officer have not quit, considering the abuse they take and the DA turning just about every arrest back onto the streets.

Probably something to do with that addiction they have for food and shelter.

Oh trust me I know all about that having stayed in a job heaped with abuse to house and feed my family. My thoughts are that this has been going on for many many months and if I and quite possibly my family were not only subject to daily abuse from my employer and a dangerous segment of the public but also very real physical threats I would have been searching for employment in a much safer place.

True enough, but it often occurs that people who have served in a position will endure the vagaries of management, either hoping it is replaced or comes to its senses. At some point, that last straw drops. I doubt that these officers in the RRT were exactly fresh from the academy, and likely they were hoping to outlast this insanity.
