I tried that route almost immediately. A good friend is the Undersheriff here in the County. I called and talked to him about all the B&E's here lately, asking for County help. Bottom line is politics. The Township doesn't want to seem like they can't handle this crime wave, so they will not ask for help. As far as the ATF, this is small potatoes to them, so they won't get involved.


I just left a local car show. A friends place, along with two others in the same subdivision, got hit for guns, knives, and tools Friday night. The more people that I talk to, the more stories I am hearing about just how bad it is getting around here. We, as a neighborhood, need some rights restored so we can protect our property and maybe some vigilante style justice be handed out. I will definitely approach the Township Board about all this shit at the next meeting. I attend almost of the meetings and haven't heard one thing about all this going on. I've had to do all my own investigating, which seems ridiculous to me.

Maybe a article to the Flint Journal will get something going....they love this kind of stuff.

That crap should be locked up out of the reach of thieves,really can't blame them unless you have a safe

In today's socialist regime what I say is more true than ever.The good old days are gone forever and you better be prepared for what is luring on the horizon.

I still think that you should contact the news. Even if it is to go to the Township Board Meeting and see how you are not getting anywhere with the police and what is going on in the community. It is just so frustrating to see what is going on. The people who have anything worth any value have to pay even more to protect your things. And even if you have an alarm system it still doesn't keep the theives out of their home. I am frustrated for Tony, these thieves are getting away with it because no one wants to talk.

Gary, I agree with flash on this one. I should be able to enjoy the things that I have instead of having to hide them. In that case why would I buy things in the first place.

On a personal note. Many years ago when times were tough for me I lived in Detroit. The day I moved into the house it was broken into and the thieves took my stuff still in boxes. As I met the few neighbors that would talk to me, I saw much of my stuff in their homes. I was told that it was not uncommon for the thieves to break into one house and go to the next to sell it. In the one year I lived there my home was broken into 13 times. I did not have the money to move and my brother Eric offered to help me get out by sharing a house with me in a better neighborhood. That was over 22 years ago and I still worry about my current home being broken into.

I now live in a nice community, with a great police department who responds within minutes. But I still park another car in front of my garage door because I want to wake up and still have my Malibu in the garage.

I think we all need to remember that this thread is about helping Tony get his stuff back.

You can't be that stupid and ignorant to believe that. It's no wonder you are not welcome anywhere. I DO blame the thieves. Keep your dumb-assed comments to yourself. Unless you want to talk about thieves that sell shit-box cars, then deny any wrongdoing. Asshole. Yeah, your work here is done.

You can't blame the thieves for stealing? You're well known for saying stupid shit and pissing people off. This one ranks as one of your better attempts, what an ass.

Tony I also blame the thieves and their parents. Having lived in the city of Detroit many years ago I saw first hand how parents taught their children how to "use the system" to collect assistance. I also watched parents teach their kids how to break into a house and tell them that because they were minors that they could get away with it because the parents would not let the police talk to them. I saw 10 and 12 yr old kids breaking into houses. It was crazy. I hope you keep on the police and if nothing else, find and prosecute those little thugs.
