    I don’t think there ever was a situation of people getting into trouble and may police sa vicinity that’s ready to do rooftop chases. Criminals are opportunists and will steal when there’s no cops nearby. Yung mga nadudukutan ng cellphone either sa mga matataong lugar where they could disappear through the crowd or sa mga alley-ways in their motorcycles. Same deal sa mga nahoholdup.

    That’s why checkpoints exist instead and it’s located in areas where the hoodlums are suspected to reside. Cops either proactively look for suspects or are tipped off via blotter and they then wait for perps that match the description and it ends either in arrests or shootouts. There’s literally tons of these types of arrests in the news. Kahit yung mga hinahabol on foot naka-motor mga pulis, like in this one.

    The downside to these more pragmatic approaches is I guess nagiging sedentary sila. But again, who cares how you look if you’re doing your job properly? I mean these guys look fit but it’s seriously one of the stupidest arrests I’ve ever seen. Sa dami nila and with the guy trapped inside the jeep hindi nila mahuli. Natakbuhan pa sila at pinaputukan.

    Better training honestly should take precedence over waistlines and pushup metrics.
