RAMPING UP THE WAR ON CRIME

The Albany Police are getting some
new vehicles to round up and transport
criminals.

Don't stop here. Albany needs a full
court press with Operation Impact to
make city streets and neighborhoods
safe for law abiding residents.

How about, more mounted officers
motorcycle, bike and foot patrols and
more k-9 dogs.

A few tanks and drones would also
be of use.

Send a clear message to gangbangers
drug dealers, muggers and assorted
anti-social malcontents that city
streets, neighborhoods, homes and
public places belong to the law abiding
citizens.

The Albany Common Council should
can their Bullseye BS and focus on
combating crime in Albany, particularly
violent crimes using guns, knives and
other weapons. Focus on stiffer penalties
for offenders.
