Change the thread to "Neighborhood Crimes" where posters can report the latest they know..or "NOTES from Neighborhood Crime Watches" where they can inform the disabled, or people in a swamp of different neighborhoods willing to tell each other the latest crimes in all regions.
Why waste space? I can't hear at Watch Meetings...some can't go for other reasons, so why not devote this empty thread where people as far as St. John, Hobart, Portgage, Hammond, etc, can ra with one another and share info on what to look for?
