Dunno, but from what I read it might.

It seems when there is the will there can be ways.

Sounds like they've done a good job there and Georgia has always had it's share of banditry,maybe something like what they've done there could be adapted for Mexico.
Very cool architecture also,interesting site,thanks.

I was impressed by their determination to get rid of the corruption when there were no Transit cops for three months. They liquidated the entire force before bringing in the new ones! They got some stones.

According to a report in EL UNIVERSAL, some 40% of the roughly 500,000 members of various police forces in Mexico have been tested for control and confidence. Of those tested, approximately 20% or 40,000 are not eligible to work.

Those figures sound a little low,maybe they meant 20% were eligible to work?

It is the Republic of Georgia. NOT Russia!

A few years ago Georgia attacked Russia. Georgia lost (Who'd a thunk it, Duh?)

Anyway, Georgia is our B. That's why they got the money.

They just did a good job about corruption. That's all.

Ok here is the answer:

During fiscal year 2009, seven federal agencies and 24 components within them
funded or implemented police-assistance activities to support their
counternarcotics, counterterrorism, and anticrime missions. Five of these
agencies provided an estimated $3.5 billion for police assistance to 107 countries
in fiscal year 2009. This amount compares to about $180 million in inflationadjusted dollars provided for these efforts in 1990, when we last compiled a
similar inventory. DOD and State provided an estimated 97 percent of all U.S.
government funds ($3.4 billion) for police assistance; DOD provided about 55
percent of the total and State about 42 percent. DOE, USAID, and DOJ provided
the remaining 3 percent of U.S. funds for activities such as procuring nucleardetection devices and training law-enforcement officers on their use, establishing
community-based police training programs, and developing terrorist crime-scene
investigation capabilities.
1
Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Mexico, Colombia, and the
Palestinian Territories each received an estimated $100 million or more in police
assistance. Both DOD and State provided funds for police assistance in 39 of the
107 recipient countries. In a subsequent review, we plan to assess how the two
agencies coordinate efforts in these 39 countries to avoid duplication and overlap.
DOD provided an estimated
$1.9 billion, or about 55 percent of the total funds, while State provided almost
$1.5 billion, or about 42 percent of the total

Meanwhile: Philadelphia officials are leaving 200 police positions unfilled and cutting back on overtime.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/02/07/AR2009020701157.html

Tulsa, Okla., and Cincinnati, Ohio, for example, recently laid off dozens of officers. In West Palm Beach, Fla., the police protested a new contract that cut back on pay and benefits.


And the beat goes on...
