But I also loved the part where it said that even among those that the BDO program "caught", it has only a 1% arrest rate. In other words, only 1% of the people that the BDOs pick out as suspicious are actually doing something worth of arrest. Ya gotta love a 1% success rate, West, ya just gotta love it!
Care to address this, West? You know, the 100% failure rate in catching people they're supposed to catch, and 1% success rate at catching the people they're looking for illegally?
