HOW DO WE STOP VIOLENCE, CRIME?

The continued additions of police officers to the force to stop
violence, drugs and robberies, has not worked and never will.
Isolated cases have been a hindrance and impossible to stop.

Home invasions are common and not foreseen. Drugs are everywhere in
the city of Windsor, even in our schools.

You could have five police officers for every 20 Windsorites and the
drug issues would still continue. Drug use is so common now, it is
hardly penalized. The economy is based on robberies and, indeed,
bread on the table for family has always been worth the risk.
Violence is ever-increasing.

The victim lies in the hospital while plea bargaining is taking place
in the courtroom for a very light sentencing. Soon, on the street
again for another go at it, is the dangerous offender.
