Charles -

   Well, we might get some honest facts from real people?  Local media have, 
in my opinion, demonstrated incredible distortion and "political correctness" 
in the way they report crime.  I lost trust in their crime reporting a long 
time ago.  A little Net free-for-all might prove beneficial.

   Thanks for your thoughts!
