Police will be so busy next year - ripping off gang patches, trying to figure out who might be in a gang (cos patches are kinda helpful like that) while catching all the crims who aren’t in gangs. I guess the 15000 workers who will be laid off could retrain as Corrections officers or makeup artists…
