POLICE SHOULD MAKE VISITS TO VIOLATORS

Some may view the new policy of HPD handling crowing roosters to be a
substantial waste of law enforcement's time. Not necessarily.

Just take Wahiawa, for example. Many of those who have these nuisance
animals within urban settings, may also likely be involved in the "ice"
business, burglary, re-selling of stolen property, violations of parole,
open warrants and other crimes against residents.

When these birds go off at 2:30 a.m., I'm all for HPD making "unannounced"
visits to these dwellings and cleaning house.

It ain't just about the chickens.
