As I drove to work this morning, along the NY/CT border just south of Newtown, I passed a car with CT plates whose bumper sticker read: "T"axed "E"nough "A"lready.

Nice. You think that guy wants to pay higher taxes for more police officers? Or does he expect the officers we already have to do this job without pay, out of some moral imperative?
