The following reports were provided by the Glenview Police Department.
Suspicious Incidents
On Feb. 5, a resident on the 1800 block of West Ridgewood Ln. reported a man came to their home, and started ringing the doorbell and peering through the home’s front windows, according to police. He was then seen pacing back and forth in the street near the home, police say.

b garrett,
If you are such a brave soul, why don't you train for the police department or the armed forces. I suspect that you couldn't make the cut, because you couldn't pass the physical or mental tests. Go away...

Maybe Richard's fear is that he couldn't make the cut, so he projects those feeling on everyone else

I can't speak for b garrett but I can and I have. The police are a subscription service for us. I am not wasting time or getting killed trying to call and wait for the cops. They can come collect and catalog what's left of the intruders after I am done.

Another tough guy with illusions of "Red Dawn". You have a better chance of killing a family member or yourself with your own gun than killing an intruder (especially in Glenview). I hope there will be mental health screening for gun purchases. I bet you couldn't pass that test.

Remember in an emergency police are only minutes away!

Sure I could. I am not a Prozac soaked, snivelling trust fund baby waiting for the government to come to my rescue like you are.
The reason you're able to flap off at the mouth so freely is because of people who have served in the military with guns by the way.
Have your trust fund administrator explain it to you one day when you take a break from worshipping Obozo.

I have passed all the tests as well, and would pass a mental evaluation. These are the big mouth mopes that have pedigrees bought by daddy, a monthly check from grandpa and a title that tries to hide it. (They're all artists, photographers, IT consultants, etc.) It's all spelled the same way: TRUST FUND BABIES.
Thank you for your service Cmdr. Garrett. I am sorry you have to witness these degenerates cause such a rapid degradation of the society you worked so hard to protect.
