They are easily manipulated, much like yourself. The percentage you use doesn't denote an actual number of incidents, nor does it prove that the approach justifies the means. Apparently you do not understand or are ignorant of what civil rights are. "innocent until proven guilty" or "trial by jury" Try to educate yourself before you blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26238753.post-85471461950105349872008-04-10T09:54:00.000-04:002008-04-10T09:54:00.000-04:00"...95 percent of the 42 reports of prescription d..."...95 percent of the 42 reports of prescription drugs the Westbrook Police received between March 2007 and March 2008 were false."<BR/><BR/>95%. <BR/><BR/>Almost all prescription drug thefts reported were false. I'm finding it a little hard to see where anyone's civil rights could be violated simply by placing a stopgap measure on filing false reports. <BR/><BR/>Do you really prefer your tax money and police time spent chasing addicts' harebrained schemes nowhere?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26238753.post-12884427023260100032008-04-09T21:40:00.000-04:002008-04-09T21:40:00.000-04:00I didn't know the police in Westbrook had turned i...I didn't know the police in Westbrook had turned into the gestapo. I prefer the police to serve and protect, not patronize and annoy. I find this a violation of anyones civil rights, and possibly discourages people from coming forward to report incidents.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
