Our whole town isn't necessarily as safe as they say it is. We have the 9th highest crime rate in the state! Time for a change of leadership in our Sheriff's office, I say. The one we have is failing miserably and trying to pin the blame anywhere else he can besides himself.   more ›

I don't know why people who steal from others are allowed back on the streets. We work our butts off to buy what we have and then people like that, who are to lazy and stupid to get a job, just take it. Makes me so mad! I don't care what their situation is, you don't take what isn't yours.   more ›

Fabian and Willebaldo - those two losers are burglarizing cars now?

Better stay away from my hood little boys, or you'll have REAL trouble!   more ›

Dirt bags. But our poor excuse of a criminal justice system will just slap their hands and set them free to continue their blight on our community, just as they did with the teenager who burglarized my house a few years ago. They let him go and sure enough, he stepped his crime spree up several notches since. Our system is an utter disgrace!   more ›
