"Nametag Allowance: Is it a waste of money?
Police Officers in Lowell get paid $450 a year to wear their nametags. The city spends more than $110,000 each year on the nametag allowance. It's in the contracts between the city and the police unions. Those contracts are up at the end of June. Do you think the nametag allowance should stay in the new contracts? Call Lowell City Manager John Cox at 978-970-4000 to voice your opinion."

In defense of Fox, I love their pointless sensationalized news stories--I have something to laugh at not one, but three times a night. Well, I guess that wasn't quite a pat on the back. Besides, as far as the nametags go (coincidentally I just got a compliment on mine today), it assures that my name is spelled correctly when Fox, or anybody has some other police or public safety issue to complain about.
If somebody has a complaint, I always give people the option to call the "other 911". (No offense NYC, it's not a bad idea...)
