About the Ravenna Police Department
The Ravenna City Police Department proudly serves the 11,500+ citizens of the City of Ravenna, with a staff of 27 sworn Law Enforcement Officers and 11 Communications Officers. The department is equipped with a state of the art computer aided dispatch system, mobile data terminals, enhanced 911, and other advanced technology to better serve its citizens. Our officers answer over 20,000 calls for service each year ranging from public assists such as vehicle lockouts to more serious criminal offenses such as assaults, burglaries and robberies. In case of more serious tactical incidents, the department belongs to Metro Swat which is a multi-jurisdictional agency that further enhances our response capabilities. The department works with a Federal Task Force through the DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency), which investigates illegal drug activity in Ravenna and throughout the county.

Missed it! Are you having another one?
To anyone who supports cops look at it this way, If any one of us tried to setup a public speech to try an get everyone on board with standing up to the Government saying enough is enough we're not gonna tolerate this B.S anymore!!!! The cops would be the first ones there trying to shut it down. They dont work for us, They work for the Government. Making ALL cops bad && Making them public enemy #1. No matter if some of them may be decent ppl outside of work or not. They are the ones who are here standing in the way of any && ALL of us from being able to make any kinda real changes in this world. Not only that but also standing in the way of Our FREEDOM making it to where we ALL remain as SLAVES.
