Really? How so? It takes an officer approximately a half hour to
get
here from the local barracks - that's if there is one available at
the
local barracks immediately. It can take an hour if the officer is on
the other side of the patrol area. That's more than enough time for
somebody to do the deed.

Its a false premise......the police are under NO obligation to protect
your toys from some low life

This should be interesting.

How come?

The courts have ruled that they are only responsible for picking up the
pieces. They are not to protect you, but that have to try to catch the
thug who mugged you.

Interesting. I'll have to check that with somebody I know who teaches
Criminal Justice.

All the best,

Tom
