Store Closures Due to Crime


I read some comments on a thread that suggested store owners should shut down their businesses in the evening to ward off a string of robberies that happened recently. I'm sorry but store owners are already pro active in keeping their staff safe. If stores cannot operate their businesses free of crime in a 24 hour period what the hell is that saying people? Why must our lives be disrupted by criminals? Residents of our City shouldn't have to accept this. Why not our City take the pro active approach in making our streets safe and send people a strong message that we won't put up with their crap anymore! I'm sorry crime prevention needs a complete overhaul as it tip toes around issues and is clearly afraid to hurt a few feelings in dealing with this heavily concerning issue.
