Unless we abandon elements which resemble a police state, we can't meet the demands of being a modern society.

Police reform is working, and crime is falling.

I'm tired of being treated like a second-class citizen.

As governor, there isn't a lot I can do beyond that to crack down on crime. Law enforcement is really a local issue. It's the cops' job to tighten down on criminals.

I am very pro law enforcement.

It is a lot harder now to be a police officer than what it used to be.

I am my own policeman.

Local people do want to see more police on the streets.

I love cops; I'm fascinated by the criminal justice system.
