Yeah, I agree. Being non-encrypted is better because they know it is being broadcast to one and all and therefore will continue to not be broadcasting sensitive information such as the identity of informants and such. With encryption, police will start talking about all sorts of new stuff because they believe it is safe to talk about on the encrypted airwaves. But in reality, although the public will no longer be able to hear what is said, there is absolutely no doubt that the major crime syndicates will have completely open access.
