i’ve heard that parts of albuqurque are beautiful. sadly, i haven’t seen them. and i’ve been there several times. :)
:0)
I grew up there. We keep the nice areas secret.
Bush’s fault.
He broke the police force.
Morale is low.
Recruitment is off.
/s
The last thing Albuquerque needs is more cops.
LOL!!!
Does Bill Richardson feel their pain?
Thia is a local issue.
It is. It is also a notice across the Conservative board that there are some folks hiring in Albuquerque. (Not just the APD)
Gonna get worse. AZ’s new laws re illegals go into effect in Jan. The newz last night said there were approx. 250,00 illegals in AZ and only about 75,000 in NM. NM is illegal friendly, but there isn’t much in the way of work for them...housing has slowed way down and the native NMicans have a lock on the drunk driving market.
Back in 1975, the Albuquerque police went on strike.
The crime rate went DOWN.
Citizens responded to the strike by patrolling their neighborhoods with their shotguns and such, and I would guess it was understood by the criminals that there would be no prisoners taken. The strike collapsed in a little while
Thank you for recalling that.
“native NMicans have a lock on the drunk driving market.”
Really? It used to be the NM House members were the 3 and 5 time offenders.
Doll..........
bump to that!
Define "drunk".
Stabing those 2 border patrol guys in the back isn’t helping much, I guess.
This would make a great thread. Any way to get the story for free?
Give the police work to the illegals. It’s work Americans won’t do, right?
