JFC who gives a ####.
Bottom line is, the patch is currently perceived by the public in a non-positive manner, and this causes distrust in the police force. The police force NEEDS to be trusted.
That's all that matters, and therefor the patch should go. Who cares what it stood for 20 years ago, what some expert says, blah blah blah.... it only matters what the public think of it NOW. I don't give a flying F what the police think it stands for.
