TOUGH ON CRIME

Creating a book as a guideline for parents on how to keep our kids safe is
a great idea to keep the president busy. The majority of parents and
grandparents already do this, as the Runnion family and countless other
families have done.

The problem lies within the court system - for example, allowing someone
like Mr. Workman to actually have 70 charges in his criminal history
without any real hard time served.

We cannot protect our children with a book when the person abducting our
child outweighs them by 100 pounds. The court system has got to start
implementing stronger sentencing on drug and alcohol charges and all sex
charges without the appeals process.

The guideline book is worthwhile but not good enough. We need the courts to
get tougher.
