[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1503257, member: 14585"] Bold headline in local paper last month COUNTY CRIME ON THE RISE. Then when you looked at the statistics it was nearly All traffic fines and violations that had increased. We had a murder once, but that's been several years. Non-traffic violations 45% below per capita national average. Last year 0 murders 6 rapes and 9 vehicle thefts in the county. Last summer driving through town pop. 1200 stopped for gas and did not put seat belt back on as I only had 6 blocks to destination. I went 2 blocks and saw police car pull out of a parking lot, so I buckled up. ($120 fine for no seat belt) The cop followed me 3 blocks and into the parking lot of the business I was going to. He pulled up alongside me as I got out and "Thanked me" for buckling up. We were the only 2 vehicles on the main drag of town in the middle of the day and he seems to think his job is to write as many traffic tickets as he can. I guess he prefers to have people support businesses in other towns, not his. [/QUOTE]
