Granted, these are raw statistics, but they are Real. We have many times said to ourselves, ?“they must happen in ?‘those?’ other neighborhoods?”, "These kind of things don?’t happen in My neighborhood.?”

Ignoring reality may be more comfortable, for now, but it is dangerous. Dangerous to our neighbors, family and to ourselves. If we ignore the around us, we are not prepared to prevent those we can. We fail in our responsibilities as citizens.

Please stay alert to all that is going on around you. Arm yourselves and your children with knowledge of prevention techniques. Protect one another by calling Crime Stop at 602-262-6151 immediately, when you see something or someone acting strange in your neighborhood. Don?’t assume that u must be o.k. for that stranger approaching your neighbor?’s. home. If we do nothing, nothing will get done. We do not live in a big-brother?’s society. ?“George?” not going to take care of us or get it done for us. . . ☺
