Thanks for the links. Doesn't sound to awful in the crime dept. for a city that size.

Another freeper turned me on to the hobby of listening to Scanners which is way cool when you are for the most part homebound. My son now has more folks to pray for, the men/women who serve our community.

The transients and heavy drinkers are the most problematic from what I can hear.

Lin Com (our County wide 911 service) called for assistance to their own office the other night as a man was playing around with their mailbox and trying to find somewhere to put his gallon of milk down. We here allot of silly stories. Allot of driving uninsured/unlicensed. That seems to go on the most is calls to check plates.

The dumbest are the druggies/drunks who want to get there partners in trouble so they call the police to report this and that and end up getting busted for bigger crimes.

Don't have to be a super sleuth around here the bad guys turn themselves in.

The other night a woman called because her husband was due home many miles from here. The officers found him at a local motel and no they did not tell the wife he had a freind with him, they felt that was info she did not need to know.

Heavenly Father, we return to give You thanks for the diligence You have given to oceanperch in the care of her beloved King Vanity. Guide her in any course of treatment that is necessary ... touch him with Your healing hand and take away the distress from the assault on his body. Strengthen him through this ordeal, and provide all the energy oceanperch needs to see him through. Bring them through this crisis quickly, I pray, that both may rest with grateful hearts for Your loving kindness. In the Name of Jesus, I pray, Amen ...

Scanners are an excellent way of knowing what's going on in your neighborhood. Before we left a large city, we voted for a NEW COMMUNICATION SYSTEM for our 911 emergency services. It was so updated, that we could no longer listen to the scanner. When the citizens complained about it, the cops said that citizens don't need scanners, and that it can put the cops in harms way....because the bad guys listen too.
