In a week, there might be 10 of those crimes COMBINED committed within three counties. A lot of these crimes are even combination - two for one crimes. People shoplifting who are also in possession of illegal drugs. That seems to be the most common situation. Most of the assaults I've seen over "there" in the past month have involved seniors living in the same house having a fight with each other. There are enough OTHER things for police to do, that they don't all have to focus on those 10 crimes that week.

Instead of simply repeating old criticisms, you might want to take a look at that online rag every once in a while. Their reporting is based on police reports which largely involve non-Villagers, comments and actions from the various CDD meetings (both positive and negative), and POA information (rarely positive). The only anti-Villager slant I see comes from the POA contributions and the letters to the editor which are also largely Villagers.
If we Villagers didn’t complain so much the all that online rag would have to report is the police activity.
If the police activity being reported is dealing with the worst of society, are those the same officers you would like to refocus on more important matters such as those traveling 60mph in a 25mph zone? (BTW: where is this 25mph zone? I can’t think of any but I would like to see the 60mph traffic there).
I’ll repeat that I’m okay with the police focusing on what they currently are.
