Tornado Alley (PROG)

[brooklyn13]

The PBA runs a bit of an extortion scheme. We are supposed to make a contribution so we can put a sticker on a car or in the window of a business to get better service from the local police force. Our local PBA has different color stickers for different donation levels.

There is no public accountability for how that money is spent
