Reason Reason: Were you frustrated as a police chief with the constraints of the law?
McNamara: Enormously. Police chiefs are sitting on kegs of dynamite. Many of them are really decent, progressive guys. They are worried about the disproportionate racial impact and the corruption. But there�s nothing they can do. There�s just too much money in it. You don�t have the ability, regardless of the propaganda, to eliminate the code of silence. You don�t have unlimited power.
