in the knome - Correct, but in these times, hauling a kid to the woodshed for a deservedly vigorous application of the rod of discipline will get YOU time in the pokey - for child abuse.
You see, the "child abuse" police are everywhere and in everyone's business. Discipline your rambunctious child in a store in front of the wrong eyes and see what happens.
A friend of mine found this out the hard way. He was forced to move out of his home and undergo "counseling." And, this is a guy with local political connections who most posters here would instantly recognize - but they were no help, for one of the "child abuse police" had a newspaper contact who made some threats of their own.
I discussed this one time with one of those folks. This person is of the belief that any kind of physical discipline of a child, regardless of the circumstances, is abuse, and justification for their interceding and pursuing parental rights revocation and foster home placement of the children.
By the way, this person has no children of their own, and has no such plans to be a parent. But, they sure know how to parent effectively - straight out of a college course and textbook. Buh-loney!

The kids who tried to rob Wendys should not have been bailed out , they should have had to spend time in the poky. At lease 5 days and then had to work for the state cleaning up some of the other trash in the area before letting them go home.
Spare the rod spoil the child .
It's time some of these spoiled children who the state claims are innocent, cause in the eyes of the law a child can do no wrong get some old fashion up bringing.
Can we say wood shed justice .
Bet you 5 to 1 they are the same poor sweet children who stoled the cars in that same area or know who did.
Watch they will only rat out others when they start looking at time , like dominoes names would drop. Shame they can't learn that crime is wrong no matter who and when .
The don't snitch laws only apply until they get caught , then like a bargain basement sale they start to tell.

| Thanks to everyone that has posted so far. Dover should not be a place to house criminals! The people in power have to have the guts to stand up against crime no matter where they live. Criminals should lose all rights to government funded housing projects. MOVE SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!! We do not want to become another I-95 metro area with a high crime rate.

I regret having to be this extreme, but the only hope for Capitol Park is with the machine known as Mike Zimmerman's bulldozer.
Remember, CP is NOT within Dover city limits, it's a county issue. Levy Court certainly isn't interested in discussing it for public consumption.

To add to your warnings
Two weeks ago at the Rodney Village Shore stop , Two cars were stolen .
One on Thursday and one on Friday , The owners left their keys in them and running .
So be smart and careful
turn them off and lock them up !
The famous words " Don't be stupid "
Capital Park would be a good place to get a Federal search warrant for the whole dang place. House to house

I wondered what that Capitol Park closeoff was about. Didn't see any mention of it in the newspapers or on line anywhere. And I haven't heard of any incident at KGH.
I live near the Square Club, and I would greatly appreciate there being a sobriery (and speed) checkpoint on both ends of College Road some Saturday night. Get the State Police to help, because the results would be quite interesting.
I remain of the opinion that there's no need for any retailer to be open 24/7/365. But those who so choose should ensure the safety of the employees, especially those working overnight, before some legislative body or their insurer either does it for them, or closes them overnight.
Locking the doors after dark, having drive-up windows like the fast food places, all gas purchases being card at the pump only after dark, would help keep the working folks safer. Some fast food places close the dining room after 9 PM, but keep the drive thru open late, sometines 24/7.

Two weeks ago they closed off the Capital Park neighborhood in the middle of
the afternoon because of a shooting incident. They wouldn't let the school buses
drop off the kids, while they searched the neighborhood. Even brought in a
State Helicopter. Wonder how many tax dollars that cost us just for that one
incident.
Also heard there was a shooting in the parking lot of Kent General Hospital last
week, but can't confirm whether it is a rumor or really true. Some of our
Newzap buddies might know.
Word to the wise, with the economy the way it is, use some common sense,
don't frequent these convenience stores after dark, and ladies, when you are
in the supermarkets, don't leave your handbag sitting in the cart!!! You are
inviting trouble.

I wonder if there were a DUI check point on Dover Kenton rd near the Square Club, with out informing the public before it happens.
How many fugitives of the law would they get?
How many guns would be confiscated ?
How much illegal drugs would be found ?
Then I wonder if the Federal , State , County and City government who use our tax dollars to pay for low income house and apartment rental so these poor folk who can't afford homes have a place to live , Like Liberty Court , Simon Circle and Manchester Square just to name a few , along with the owners of these places would agree to have their properties searched for illegal activities own their property, how much more crime could be stopped?
I wouder id ACLU and NAACP would open their minds to know that there is a problem with drugs and crime and some of their cases need not to be cases
But then keeping our would safe has it's cost.

If they would get a hand on DU it would be a start on some of the criminal action.
Campus security need to do more then they do , working along with the state and DPD .
I wonder if a blanket serach warrant would scare the ba ge bees out of them.

| I guess we could use Zimmerman's bulldozer also! He only got a couple of blocks near Wesley. Many more to go. Maybe City Council can hire him as "The Cleaner".

| How about a decrease in criminals to clean up the neighborhood. Why should I pay for more police, when a few well placed security cameras and a gun tower will solve the issues.
