You can't be politically correct and protect normal citizens at the same time.

More police officers on the streets is the biggest problem. More cops will at least put more criminals into the revolving door of the justice system and off our streets for a little while. It seems we are keeping up with correct amount of firemen. FJB Keep boycotting Bud Light we winning.

Note the full case of Bud Light in the dumpster in the picture above. Go woke go broke Bud Light. But I thought you are supposed to separate the cardboard from the aluminum into different recycling dumpsters. Has this changed or are all the dumpsters overflowing and people put where they can?

This should have happened long ago. Start in elementary school and by the time the "scholars" reach high school, it won't be a big deal to keep the cell phones in the lockers and out of the classrooms. Why wasn't this policy implemented 10 years ago? FJB

Yes, so kids can concentrate on there school work instead of texting or watching sports. Here is a solution for the Columbia Missouri school district they can buy cellphone security bags from this company. https://www.overyondr.com/phone-free-schools
