I've heard that it is the most central location for times in their shifts when they do not have any calls to respond to. I'm not positive so don't quote me on that

There are always cops on 41st and granville too.

I assume it's because of the central location...?

its cause its a dark and cozy corner with a lot of space, next to a convenience store AND mcdonalds, and central location. perfect place for a cop to hang out. if you're planning on robbing a bank, wait till you see a large gathering of cops in that 1 location first.

imagine some idiot tries to rob that gas station, with all the cops parked outside, and maybe even a few standing inside the shop...

the clerk should give that idiot robber a prize, for being the dumbest criminal ever!. id so send that to jay leno for headlines!
