Bobbbiez cares about the city!

[bobbbiez]

Concerned, you have been around and you are so correct. Many dealers are much smarter then people give them credit for.
Many would really be surprised what they come up with to keep one step ahead of the law.

They do read the papers and for many reasons to benefit their illegal activities. For example, they watch articles in the paper for the graduations of new police cadets and have had people at the graduations just to get pictures of the new cadets. Pretty hard to be undercover when the dealers already have your picture.

On the other hand sooner or later they do make a mistake. It only takes one good bust and their a** is gone for a long time.
That's the bright side and does give hope to the good people who are fighting the battle against them.

Oh Dave, I do feel very honored.

You're still my hero! (even though you can't draw). ;D

[bobbbiez]

Frankie, Frankie, Frankie. Haven't you learned anything in your many years walking this great earth?

Geez, I've learned this from all you men pounding it into my head, "women are never satisfied." I'm just trying to live up to your expectations. ;D

Good for you Bobbbiez!!! I was waiting to see what the fallout would be from that. And thanks for stopping down, it was a pleasure as always.

Trying to stay anonymous whilst going down this road is just not possible. While I was doing it actively, everyone I was fighting against knew exactly who I was. It was only at the point where my name started to hit the paper and I attended more public venues before accepting my position as coordinator that the folks in the neighborhood and general public began to know who I was.

The minute you raise a stink, no matter how public it is or not, they know and begin to keep an eye on you. As a matter of fact, at some points being "known" to everyone will actually increase your chances for staying safe.

Here it is, so soon after Valentine's Day, and I completely forgot about the vanity of womankind.

Dave, now that's much, much better. Well, maybe truer going back about 35 yrs. ;D

I do feel the price is a little too high. After all our economy really sucks and I would want the average person to be able to afford it.
Besides, between you and I, I really can't sing that much better then Elvis.

You done good my friend! You always manage to make my day.

[bobbbiez]

Ralph, it is always our pleasure to visit with ya and enjoy a cup of DD java after a very long day.

I really never think about being exposed to the undesirables and especially by the news. Sooner or later they find out who you are, so there is no way to hide it anyways.

I think it was Denise who mentioned my two boys being on the UPD and hoping they protect me. I had a good laugh over that one. Having both of them on the department for over 20 yrs now and one being an undercover drug investigator for years, they were the reason many times that we were threatened and faced some danger, but it is all a part of their jobs. The public might voice what they think the dangers our Officers face on a daily basis but the public has no conception just how dangerous it really is and how it does flow over to the Officer's whole family.

Will my boys protect me? Yep, they protect me as they protect everyone else and that's by just doing their jobs and taking the criminals off the streets.

Like you Ralph, I am just a citizen who knows it's up to the public to assist the police were we can in helping by keeping our eyes and ears open to any illegal doings and report those activities to those who can take care of business and rid the city of the scum. We, the private citizen, has to do our part if we truly want things to improve in our areas. It's that simple.

" I agree with you, Concerned, that the dumbo laced out stereotype is not accurate. Many of these guys are smart and experienced marketers."

Those who sell hard drugs (that other than marijuana) do not also use the drugs, so I agree here. They're in it for the money; getting high would interfere with that.

We may differ on the topic of pot, Bobbie. But I applaud your drive to do something & speak up in your community.

[bobbbiez]

Stoney, thank you girl, but no applaud is necessary. Just doing what everyone should concentrate on and that's taking our neighborhoods back from the scum.

I know many don't see Marijuana as a serious deadly drug. I do, because I see in our neighborhoods the undesirable constant traffic it brings on our streets. Actually, a house thats sells pot has more traffic coming and going then the heavier drugs. They to have turf wars and good families are right in the middle of this sh*t. It is cheaper to buy so younger kids are buying and using it more. As is with the heavier drugs these kids are willing to steal, rob and kill for a $5.00 bag of pot.

I believe the former drug addicts when they state marijuana is a gateway drug. Getting it straight from the horses mouth is proof enough for me. I will stay strong against legalizing pot until those in the know can prove otherwise.

Everyone is allowed to their opinion and don't ever be afraid to voice yours. Whether you agree with me or not. That's how we all learn from each other and in that, hopefully, we can work together for a better world.
