OT: What's up with Austrians lately?

Maybe you should just get to know your neighbors better. Say hello every once in a while!

AT is right on the money again. Guns are illegal in Chicago, BUT there's been many killings there. (Please don't turn this into a gun control thread). I just mention this to verify AT's post about our lawmakers and the LAW's that they do make...

There are cameras being placed all over our cities these days to watch over us (Big Brother is Watching). All that money spent on cameras and not on police officers. I have yet to meet a camera that has stopped a crime. It will convict a criminal, BUT a police officer will prevent the crime. The police used to get into the communities and meet with the people they protect. Nowdays they are to busy enforcing BS laws that require their time and take them farther from the people whom they are supposed to protect. Thats why these stories end up in the news rather then a chance of being stopped before too much time passes for the victims!!! Lets wake up!!!
