Good idea remove DARE programs from school make it felony for 12-20 year old to possess a marijuana but sell it on every street corner, remove the cameras from police vehicles, shred the VHS tapes but have a spy camera on every overpass watching everyone but the police, stop caring about law abiding citizens and their property, and go buy a Stryker vehicle to use in parades, citizen intimidation and Randle meth busts. Progress,… Our parents and grandparents would be proud. God bless America.
Funny I have been watching cops episodes from the 80’s and they had dash cameras and bait cars way back then. Yet here it is almost 35 years later and Centralia PD is still driving around with no dash cameras nor have they deployed a Honda Bait car in the city streets to fight crime. Until Centralia PD gets with the program expect more and more Honda thefts. On more positive note the Crystal Spring Waters truck made its monthly delivery of Fluoride free water to the Centralia City Hall. What I don’t understand, is if the Fluoridated water is good enough for the general public then why don’t city officials just drink the water that’s on tap instead of drinking bottled water at the expense of the Tax Payers. No bait cars, no police cameras and no accountability for the Fluoridated water. Welcome to 2017 citizens of Centralia, where your Tax Dollars are buying city officials bottled water, why you and your family drink the known carcogenic Neurotoxin Fluoride that causes bone cancer, artery disease and thyroid disorders all paid for by you the tax payer. After all these years I realize our citizens must enjoy the services provided by the City of Centralia.
