The Editor,
Re: "Let's get these guys," the Now, Aug. 14.
Why have we let our society get to the point of having to appeal to the scumbags mothers to turn them in? Let our policemen loose to go and get them.
Take them down with whatever force is necessary to make them understand that any crime of this nature, and worse, is unacceptable.
Then instruct the justice department to enact the lawful punishments that will teach them a lesson.
The government must step up to close all of the loopholes and technicalities ASAP that allow these punks to run arrogantly and rampantly around. Surely we aspire for a better society for ourselves, and our kids free from crime.
But the gutless balance of us will say and do nothing about it until it affects them personally - too cowardly and politically correct. Therefore, let us carry on with doing nothing and encouraging crime.
