By your statement I could just as easily say that since there has been no major crimes in my town in the past few years, that we should consider letting a majority of our police department go, since we don't REALLY need them, since crime is at an all time low.

Personally I say let them do their job, and if it even prevents a SINGLE death, then it is worth it!
