I agree completely, and once again, i'll say this. I went to a council meeting and asked this very question..."When will Asbury Park bring on new law enforcement resources to help fight the crime that is plaguing our city" and I was met with blank stares by the council. No response...they just looked at me. Then, when the public portion of the meeting was over, they never even discussed it. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, Lightgrw <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > On Oct 19, 2006, at 10:03 AM, ju > > By the way News12 and the Asbury Park Press sometimes work in tandem > > about their coverage of AP. > > The only problem is that while hiding the news might attract more > people to buy the condos, it won't make the problem go away.
