And I can definitely understand that - the last thing you want is some sort of crowd riot, or people getting hurt during this thing. I don't know that I have as much of a problem with the use of the LAPD, as I do with the method of paying for their use. But I agree the city was in a bit of a tough spot, especially if the Jackson famly is dragging its feet on reimbursing the costs.
