Commish's Crime Plan Costs 25 Cents

013008pacmanpiechart.jpg
New Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey has released his crime plan, and it's sensible-sounding, at least at first glance.

He wants more cops on the street, fewer homicides, lawful stop-and-frisk techniques in high-crime areas. He also wants to work with the community. (Here's a summary, .pdf format.) And, in case you're wondering, Segways are mentioned. Yes!

There are also charts and graphs, which you can see from my (slightly edited) copy of a pie-chart at right. If Pac-Man can just eat enough of those big pellets and chase down flashing blue homicide suspects, maybe we can have a crime reduction in this city after all.

Problem: Pac Man represents the afternoon and nighttime peak hours of criminality. If he eats everything up, that wil just mean that all crooks have become nocturnal.
