In our community meetings we are encouraged to report suspicious activity yet when we do we are left in the dark ad to results. When activity does occur, there is no communication back to the community, ever, not even when activity is in our neighborhoods and police are on site/ at location. So why should we be excepted to put out our necks to have no truthful communications back? What is the point? So having lived in LM three decades the crimes are really all the same BS wandering criminals from across the line, just as they were in the 1970's... One would imagine technology would help? Not like we all don't know where it comes from....
