Which countries or is it mainly a Puerto Rican crime wave. My guess is that the barios have emptied of the worse of the worse from the island and have migrated to mainland Hispanic communities. Anything to back this up? And please, no derogatory statements.

Tactics and strategies may change but the reason police are out there is to try to stop crime, identify those involved and to make crooks afraid to operate. That's not old school it's what needs to be done. <br /><br />Sexual assault victims can't be compared to anonymous posters on a blog because they are victims of unspeakable crimes. Whistle blowers with legitimate complaints should remain anonymous as well but blog posters do so in anonymous form because they lack the reputation or courage to put their names to anything by writing nonsense just like you did Mr. 1045.<br /><br />The police officers who wore those shirts exhibited terrible judgement and got disciplined just like they should have been by Chief Roberts. They set a terrible example and lowered themselves to the level of the creeps on the street that benefit from that street rule. That's something that no one in my old school time would ever let happen. <br /><br />So have a nice weekend and think of some witty response and remain anonymous. <br /> Christopher Lyons retired HPDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-66862714650514706492017-10-19T22:45:35.624-04:002017-10-19T22:45:35.624-04:00Chris Lyons , Do you also have the same disdain fo...Chris Lyons , Do you also have the same disdain for rape victims who opt to use the “Jane Doe” option ,do they not have courage? How about the nameless whistleblowers that have saved lives and/or exposed corruption with supplying anonymous info, do they not have courage? How about those thugs you arrested that use an alias like G-MONEY,,,LITTLE MO,,,,BIG WILLIE,,,,,KILLER KEMBO , do they not have courage? Sorry Chris but your old school style of policing has been replaced, I guess you didn’t hear about the two pj officers working a block party wearing “ DONT BE A SNITCH” T-shirts a couple years back. Maybe HFD’s Fire Marshall’s should wear “DONT FORGET THE MARSHMALLOWS “ T-shirts next time they investigate an arson fire.

Plus, they want to infringe your gun rights so the perps can roam free while you are searching for the key to your trigger lock and your ammo is stored in a safe at the gun club. It's just common sense gun control, that's all.<br /><br />When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.<br /><br />The last time I went to Wethersfield DMV, there was an out of control family with feral kids, making more noise and harassment than everybody else put together, and an IQ in single digits except when it comes to scamming the welfare system, they are geniuses at that. It's just sad and even if it happens, it's a very long road back to integrate these people back into civilization.General Grievousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-15562445922059660022017-10-19T09:26:24.369-04:002017-10-19T09:26:24.369-04:00To the anonymous of 6:31.

Your inconsequential message means zero. <br /><br />The lack of citizen cooperation in unsolved homicides that affect the Hartford Community endangers the entire community. Known criminals allowed to operate w/o fear of being identified by the same community they afflict. That is why there are so many unsolved in the city. Police know the suspects but just knowing that info isn't enough to make an arrest.<br /><br />And finally I actually did the job like hundreds of other retired men and women from the Hartford Police Department. We were never anonymous. So the next time you want to see a joke you might want to look into your mirror and I am in Hartford every day if you wish to discuss any issues. <br /> Christopher Lyons retired HPDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-68567927527302352822017-10-19T08:45:06.116-04:002017-10-19T08:45:06.116-04:00Anonymous October 18, 2017 at 10:19 PM you are cor...Anonymous October 18, 2017 at 10:19 PM you are correct.
