Police officers arrest criminals, not prevent them from committing crimes.

LOL...We try to catch them in the act but never do. We ALWAYS just arrest them after the fact. Your perception of our Police Department could be because their is no Manpower to do proactive policing, but we do catch a few in the act believe it or not. I can't even touch much of your post it's almost laughable.
Do you seriously think a rapist is going to check the staffing numbers of OKCPD to determine whether he's going to rape his next victim?
Not necessarily, but citizens do consider that as factor before they relocate or decide to stop for a visit.

By increasing the quality of life, you decrease crime rates. Houston may have lower "rates" in some crime categories, but quality of life in Houston is incremental.

Some call Houston the armpit of Texas. Did you know that?

there's a whole ward the HPD tries not to touch because things are so bad.

Interesting that was my point! Which ward won't Houston PD touch. I have several contacts at Houston PD and i'd be curious to hear about that.
