Yip.the Justice System (Rotten UNjust System !! ) certainly is failing the country and I mean the WHOLE country - not just one side of the divide. I also would NOT want to work as a law enforcing officer under the current system. Once justice goes, I guess it won't be long before it

You're quite right, Johnny. There is a crime overlap, but it really belongs on the site that deals with civic issues, which this primarily is. As we all should know by now, the CID initiative for Obs has been driven by the OCA, but the distinctions easily get blurred. Rob --~--~-~--~-

Only 9 cents, out of every Rates rand Obs pays to the council comes back to Obs in terms of services. I have asked several Politicos (including Tony Leon) what happens to the bulk of the money (ie is it accounted for: where does it go and what is it spent on? ) The most detailed response thus far

I saw them too, a few nights ago, in Trill Rd, a sorry bunch of no- hopers. Quite a large group, almost a mob - some girls in the ranks. They all looked young, about 17. I was patrolling with my Alsatian, so there was a respectful silence as I passed! --~--~-~--~~~---~-
