Crime in the County

If you read Newsday its a steady stream of crime articles. Maybe the paper's not what it used to be. Or maybe the NCPD isn't what it used to be. Courtesy of course, of Tom Suozzi's messed up priorities.

High Tax Tom and his lapdog legislature, led by the wanna be CE Dave Mejias, have cut police services. They've cut the detectives. Now the Nassau County Police Department numbers several hundred fewer at its peak. And, as everyone knows, crime is rising. People seem to have forgotten how to drive within the law.

And yet, the police budget keeps going down. Where is all the money going? Tax revenue rolled in during the good times. Where did Tommy spend it? His race for governor? His 14 deputy county executives who average over a hundred thousand a year in salary? Sending work out of state and putting working people out of jobs?

Who knows? But we need a change. We need to elect a TAX REVOLT ticket of real change before our county ends up like the other county with the worst bond rating in the country...Detroit.
