You want to make it stop. Then paint over it when it happens; immediately. Don't give the depraved little vermin the opportunity to enjoy what they did.
Also keep this crap out of the papers and off the 6:00 news. |
gunnar1073,
I understand what you are saying and I appreciate it but...
The only problem with painting over it immediately is that it stays out of the papers, it stays out of the news and it stays out of the minds of the entire community. Maybe every little bit of gang activity (even when they walk down the street) should be published in the paper, every time they buy a can of spray paint, their names and addresses should be published, every time they breath should draw so much attention to them that people sit up and take notice.
This attitude of ignoring them and turning a blind eye to thier activities has gotten us where we are now. It has not worked and never will. The lights need to be turned on them. They need to be exposed and identified. (by name and address) The PD knows who they are and where they live. When the police busts one, thier face should be all over the front page of the paper. And pictures of them should be hung at all the groc. stores, Kwik Trips, Loves and everywhere else.
They should be recognizable to everyone in Dodge.
But God forbid that we ever address an issue in Dodge City, it might make us look like we have problems. So let's just ignore them and paint over thier signs real quick so no-one notices.
