All they do is check the security of houses for snow birds. Let people pay if you want a private security guard but we should all pay for a group of people that won’t even drive by a suspicious vehicle because “it is too dangerous”. We don’t need gate guards to open the gates either. I would rather see them all lived to pools and check ids before everyone enters.
Again, THAT'S NOT WHAT THEY DO. They are not law enforcement. They are not armed. They are not detectives.

And yet, 2 sentences after describing them as worthless, we have " a person seeing a CW drive by may decide to just leave". So which is it? No value in having a "suspicious" vehicle or person leave? Are we looking for the shootout at OK Corral on the streets of Hemmingway???
