They don't report it i think cause someone in there somewher is involved. They have to be. If people push and push you'll then hear of a little bust. A few pill poppers or pot smokers. Who CARES?? Where is the real busts?? heck, they you,i we all know they travel to Philly or Harrisburgh to get the crap and bring it back and i don't believe for a second they don't know who's buying or selling. Really do you??? Just keep stocked with Narcane. This problem isn't going anywhere until we get sick of it,finally ALL stick together and get people in office that give a you know what. The enforcement isn't there now. I was robbed by a heroin user and the cops never called 1 place to see if any of my stuff was sold around here! They could care less.

WORKING ON IT? by that do you mean working on turning a blind eye,cause THAT'S what they do. The one who said they are embrassed about there lack of busts is right and WHY is that? You just said you know where drugs are being sold. I never heard anything about it in the Sentinel. Then there's another problem. WE HAVE NO GOOD REPORTERS that will tackel a tough drug issue and brinh to light what needs to come out and who's hiding behind their uniforms or desks. We need a reporter with some guts to tell it the way it really is here. Are you out there???????

I am kind of a yoppie here but mist agree our money could better be spent on something other than a town square revamp! There's NOTHING here anymore. Where's the 60,000.00 plus dollars the kids raised for a skate park? Who's getting the intrest from that? There ARE ways around insurance,grants etc. They just shut them down. It's NOT the pink and blue spiky hair,tattoos, and piercings that scare me. It's the judges .lawyers,magistrates,police and 'so called' enforcers of the aw that scare me.And dispatchers. To quote Nancy Grace"are all dispatchers Asses?"They all seem to forget we pay THEIR salary. THEY WORK FOR US. Yes,i still say someone needs to get some guts and get the people here organized and let's put a stop to this crap!! I'm game if you all are. Or are we afraid of who may see us?

Sorry to sound harsh, but that's the facts.

---and yet- nearly every area has drugs.
