It's the same all over the place. You either have speed traps or they don't do much. Where i live here in PODOCK junction The cops don't do much , they are only in it to get there 20 years in . I live on one of the state routes and about a 1/2 mile from the city limits , my house set up on a hill and i can look down into passing cars while setting on the ft. porch . . What i see each day is about 1 in 6 cars going by that are not texting , with the old corner store down the street that thrives on beer sales i see beer cans and bottles thrown from cars in less then a 1/3 rd of a mile s from the store , I see cars and trucks going past the house thinking that it is Quaker City Drag way same with motor cycles . Then we have Lets make a deal going on at several houses . And nothing is done . I live like five blocks from the cop shop and the fastest they have ever made it here is 14 min. up to 17 min. timed from the time i hang up the phone , how often do you see a cop car even venture into this are if your lucky maybe once a month . Having a set down with them and several other officials has done nothing since this side of town is not important to them . If little johnny the rich kid from the N/E side gets in trouble it is swept under the rug and kept quiet . the cops , fi ya want to call them cops we have now could not fight there way out of a wet paper bag , either they are little wimpy things of they are the Mr.Donut taste testers and start wezzing if they have to walk more then fifty feet and for get running . The last interaction we had was the night i was walking my dog late one evening and one of the drunks decided to open fire with a hand gun , no he was not shooting at me as no rounds came my way. BUT that could have changed so i called on my cell and when i hung up i looked at the time and stayed close to a pole and waited , took 17 min.for them to get there . When they arrived all three cars they all got out and ran around the side of there cars a cowerd down . I get Where are the shots coming from , so i point and i get well are YOU SURE it was gun fire . Yes i am sure , well what kind of gun and i said pistol probable a 9 mill. , Were they shooting at you NO well are you sure YES , how do you know they were not shooting at you . Because i have been shot at before . Oh yea almost for got about the one late night early morning when i had someone walking around my house and called at 3:35 AM , this person was checking out cars and pickup and house doors here again 17 min wait this time the three town clowns and one township cop . I was out on the ft. porch watching this guy and giving a blow by blow to the dispatcher as to where he was and all the cops did was RIDE around using there spot lights . It just two of the Jelly belly's would have stopped and got out of the cars and JUST WALKED seventyfive feet they could have had him . BUT no they all drove down to my place and had to talk with me while this guy gets up and just walks away.
