    Wait, what is with a police budget? Most libraries I know of don't really have that. They just liaison with the police for trouble-making patrons that need to be gone (public masturbators, people that won't leave when politely asked due to violations in policy, etc.)

      public masturbators

      We aren't all "troublemakers", you know. Please walk a mile in someone else's shoes before you judge.
