HOPE YOU GET GOOD RESULTS. IF THIS WERE IN LITTLE ROCK, I WOULD THINK IT WAS A USELESS EFFORT...BUT I WORK HARD ON MY OWN TO CONVINCE THEM THAT THEY "WANT TO BE WHO THE LOSERS AND BULLYS WORK FOR"....got that from a speech Bill Gates gave to a graduating class and loved it.

It has been so bad here for so long. I hope they can succeed. Cities that have been marred by crime and corruption in the past have to start doing it better than anyone else. Getting rid of Redus and the police chief have been a good start. Next criminals need to know there will be no tolerance or looking the other way. I would work on doubling the force down there and put in place a citizen's review council so there is no appearance that rights are being violated. Judges need to hand out harsh sentences so the law-abiding citizens of PB can start to believe in their community again.
