    1. Let your stuff get stolen then let’s see how much you complain about to many cops and needing budget cuts! SMH

  1. Lane, if they go to a fair fight, they are unprepared. Criminals don’t play by the rules. If you are one of the criminals I can understand your comment. If you are one of the victims you want them caught and you want the officers to have every advantage.

  2. It is about time some of these people get caught. Our trailor was stolen a year ago while my husband was in the hospital. There still has not been any charges after us finding our trailor ourselves and names were admitted.
