Why can't the police be a sub-division of the army? Then it can remain under your guidance and you can still help (and be a member of) M.A.D.P.L.A.N.S? Just think of an appropriate acronym, and be listed as a sub-department.

While your idea within your prior message would possibly work, I would prefer a man of a fair amount of sanity and morality in charge. While I would still be in command of the department, I would still be subservient to yourself, a man of questionable sanity and morals. Therefore, I would rather it be created as a separate organization so that it would be a more-sane mind that oversees the punishment of those who attempt to create chaos, and be more immune to corruption.

Message: Fair enough. You never know with Bay12.
Expect full support from M.A.D.P.L.A.N.S. for officers in the field / any other matters I can help with.
Remember that my offer is still open indefinitely in case you change your mind.

I am glad you understand my viewpoint. I am glad that there will be support from an already existing agency, and will gladly accept any assistance. Do not worry, I shall keep that offer noted, just in case it is needed within the future.
Also, do not forget that the name is spelled "Zan
zetkuken" not "Zan
hetkuken." We don't want any messages between our departments to get lost!

I will quote the reasons why I think this is a poor idea from a message I sent to TopHat, due to it applying to you as well.

As you can see, I believe that there should be separate organizations to keep tabs upon each other to for the organizations to keep tabs and check upon others to prevent those from abusing power, something that I am against. This also has a basis in fact that if a government abuses power, the citizens will revolt, leading to something similar to the French Revolution or the more recent Arab Spring. Within a colony of the bay forum, the number of insane people would make abuse a poor idea indeed.
