Woodstock Illinois gettin "Sister City" in Mexico
Hey guys!!
You need to see this link to an article from a newspaper from an adjoining county of ours. This is rediculous!!
In this article is the following statement from an officer in the Sherriff's Department. It makes me sick to my stomach!!
“If you have immigrants coming here from Mexico that treat a stop sign like a yield sign, you need to know that,” he said. “... When we take enforcement action, we can use knowledge and compassion. Throwing a $75 ticket at someone who had been taught to do something another way doesn’t make sense.”
I'm sorry but in my opinion, NOT giving a ticket to somebody who runs a stop sign doesn't make any sense!!!
Here in Waukegan, we had 2 of our police cars damaged and one officer hurt from people with no lisense, no insurance, and they both had run stop signs!! Where's the "compassion" for these officers that put their lives on the line for us everyday?? Where's the "compassion" for the taxpayers that are paying for repaired/replaced police vehicles???
Please check this out. I still don't believe it..... :evil: :evil: :evil:
