I turned around to find one voting machine occupied.<br /><br />So I did my patriotic duty and voted for Doden, chuckling all the while at the voting clerk's funny comment.gadflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06219461694806089345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33342813.post-67931705717069224632011-05-03T20:05:13.674-04:002011-05-03T20:05:13.674-04:00BG:

There should be NOTHING...T.O.:<br />You are so correct.<br /><br />There should be NOTHING WRONG with NOT wanting crime to enter a neighborhood...ANY neighborhood or ANY ethnicity.<br />(thanks to Section 8, that's not always possible - your tax dollars at work - against you)<br /><br />Increased TRAFFIC enforcement is the tip of the spear here...active PATROLS in neighborhoods and alleys with specified focus on businesses that draw crowds is another facet of this. There are a lot more.<br /><br />And yes, it CAN (and should) be adapted to ANY part of an urban setting, even (especially) the inner city.<br /><br />Other places have PROVEN that such tactics WORK.<br /><br />I said the SAME thing to my wife about the rims...flatbed the vehicles for an event or "show" (like classic cars or hot rods), but don't drive them where normal folk have to drive...that's ASKING for an accident to happen.<br /><br />And it was my pleasure to use that link you provided.<br /><br />Again, thank you for that...and for taking time to stop by today.<br /><br />Stay safe out there.Bob G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09222203353717749897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33342813.post-84646835747534799752011-05-03T14:32:26.152-04:002011-05-03T14:32:26.152-04:00Bob G:

The two cities mentioned in the article, Shawnee and Prairie Village, are suburban towns to KCMO and are fairly well off--solidly middle class. One of their goals is to keep creeps and crime from creeping in--a goal I think all decent neighborhoods would agree is a good one.<br /><br />Despite some of the socioeconomic differences I think this idea can be adapted to any part of the metroplex. Lately, in my own neck of the woods, I have noticed increased traffic enforcement. It's not profiling--it's seeing a violation and going and pulling that car over.<br /><br />And the revenue doesn't hurt either. ;-)<br /><br />As to the rims, if you want to run them for a show or to cruise, that's one thing, but for daily driving, I'd keep a set of good old fashioned steel rims on.<br /><br />Happy Tuesday to you!<br /><br />The ObserverThe Observerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17696168395133075354noreply@blogger.com
