My house is paid off. My car is paid off. My gun is paid for. Everything I have has been paid for. It's called working for a living and living within your means. I still get to travel & go on vacations.
As for the "Crime Watch" thing, good luck! In Lancaster, most of the people don't want to get involved, except to gripe about the crime. They won't even report it when they see it happen. It's the I don't want to get involved, let someone else report it attitude. I have a neighbor who had her car broken into. She said why report it, what can they do?
I know people feel like, "What can the police do, my "stuff" is gone?" Crime statistics are important. It was one of the things that stimulus money to cities to fight crime was based on. Also, how do you know if you arare crime is actually increasing or decreasing if the statistics are incorrect because crime is not reported.

Hypocrite.
I never speculate on who you are, what you own, or anything about any Talkback posters personal lives or business. I really could care less. I can't say the same for most of you.
