I'm sure they aren't the only company that does this.
Pittsburgh isn't Ohio and rules are different in each area/state/city/suburb, etc...

What does Mayor Bill say about this?

It's all good until an organization that you don't agree with buys law enforcement and directs them at you.

Don't do the crime and you won't do any time.

Must need to be spelled out clearer. Stay out of trouble and you won't have a problem. Break the law and you'll pay the consequences.

And, as I said -- It's all good until an organization that you don't agree with buys law enforcement and directs them at you.

The way things are becoming with very little to no intolerance of different viewpoints, I tend to agree that we are heading towards this type of mentality. It is pretty scary how the young seem to just follow the group they associate with without knowing much in the way of facts. I can see some ring leader (sort of like "Lord of the Flies") leading the lazy people down some path that could end up attacking some innocent person via paid police. I think we will hear about a story like that at some point. I am not worried where I live since we don't need extra policing. Heck the cops are running around looking for things to do around here.
