Those liberals

In Tuesday’s Valley Press it was reported that supermarkets will be fined for their “stolen” and abandoned shopping carts, fees, storage etc. by the

City of Lancaster.

Naturally this cost will be passed on to the customer. Here is a thought for the city fathers and mothers, you are at the wrong end of the stick again, how about arresting the people who actually commit the crime.

Entering onto private property and removing valuable items is a crime. I know this upsets your liberal mind set but it is a fact.

I have written in prior letters of the rising level of acceptance of crime, homelessness, drugs etc. in Lancaster, don’t punish the offender, don’t give the people the means to protect lives and property just give the criminal element what it wants.

I have said it before what this city needs is a Plain Common Sense Commission staffed by people with practical life experience, people who know the value of other peoples money (taxes) people who have worked hard for a living out in the hot AV sun, people not enamored with global problems or sucking up to international concerns but concerned only with local issues and control for the benefit of locals.

Radical thought these days or maybe a solution, don’t want homeless people from all over the country coming here stop paying them. Help local people in need and veterans but not the professional homeless welfare class. Reinstate the old vagrancy laws, get control of the city or it will be too late, we all can’t move to Laguna Beach with the mayor. David Stilwell
