PATROL OUR AREA FIRST
I cannot believe it. I see people selling drugs two blocks from my house
downtown in the middle of the day, and the police are working on I-95. The
taxes we pay downtown are more than sufficient to have the force needed to
keep our streets as safe as possible from drugs. When the gunfire from
competing drug dealers starts on the weekend, the thought of our police
being 50 miles away is infuriating.
If the city were looking out for its citizens, the police would be in
our neighborhoods stopping speeders and people running stop signs and
red lights.
