You obviously aren\'t happy about anything and don\'t try to be a positive influence on any subject. Fester in your own misery! - gabby Sun, 15 Jun 2008 18:29:10 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5393 a penny for your thoughts but "ten cents worth" (did inflation render "two cents worth" moot? :wink: ), to spendy for me. The only thing I keep in mind when an emergency arises is where is the extra ammo. I look forward to new shots across the bow - but hopefully on a new (yawn) subject. Sorry you felt it necessary to use a phrase you despise - hope you didn\'t sprain anything while ethics bending. - Donna Christopher Sun, 15 Jun 2008 12:04:31 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5390 You never know when you might get rammed at 100mph in downtown Lakeport. Even if the police are trained for high speed chases, I seriously doubt Danica Patrick was behind the wheel of the pick-up truck. Scary! - L.onWheels Sun, 15 Jun 2008 08:53:37 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5383 \"You people\" is also a phrase that I despise, but it sure got your attention. It is highly appropriate for the conversation. Freedom of speech is also a right of mine. I enjoy the subject matter and intend on sticking around putting in my ten cents time and again. While you are sedentary, keep in mind when your emergency arises, they will still come. - gabby Sat, 14 Jun 2008 19:26:21 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5384 speech nothing grates like fingernails on a chalkboard than the phrase \"you people\". Sorry you are displeased by the discourse on this subject on this site at this time gabby. Call your buddies at the cop shop and let them know your are being held against your will and being forced to read other peoples opinions - just let them know that \"you people\" are exercising their right to free speech. I\'m pretty sedentary, they should be able to catch me :wink: Home for the rest of the day, no high speed chase necessary. - Donna Christopher Sat, 14 Jun 2008 15:37:06 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5379 Some of \"you people\" seem to find fault in everything even without knowing all the facts. I still believe that it turned out just fine. NO ONE WAS INJURED! The police can\'t catch the bad guys everytime. But they must keep trying. How do any of you know what kind of search was done? Were any of you there? Why do you even care? You\'ve already expressed that they weren\'t even worth chasing in the first place. Make up your mind! Contrary to what some of you police bashers think; you have very well trained law enforcement officers in your area. Be thankful and less judgemental! - gabby Sat, 14 Jun 2008 14:20:56 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5342 Magnum. I thought the K-9 police dog was capable of following a scent. Maybe your right about the K-9 officers\' availability, sure would be easy for the authorities to clear that one up. Shame to have a such an indispensable tool as a trained police dog and only one person that can make use of that tool. Kinda like having a weapon but only one officer is allowed to fire it. Maybe local hunters with good huntin\' dogs will form an auxillary unit to assist in such matters :wink: - Donna Christopher Fri, 13 Jun 2008 16:18:43 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5343 You just contradicted yourself, Donna. It is a large area with lots of places to hide. And Maybe the K9 officer was not home or on call. - Magnum Fri, 13 Jun 2008 15:48:02 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5357 for the culprits should have lasted a good deal longer. I would expect no less, the fairgrounds is a large piece of property with lots of places to hide. Hence the K-9 Magnum. You can work hard, you can work smart. Don\'t think either occured on this evening. - Donna Christopher Fri, 13 Jun 2008 14:38:23 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5356 Do you think the chase lasted hours or what? - Magnum Fri, 13 Jun 2008 14:16:15 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5331 worth calling in the K9 officer it sure as hell did NOT merit a high speed chase thru town. Can\'t have it both ways Magnum. - Donna Christopher Fri, 13 Jun 2008 13:21:07 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5359 So Smurf I guess LA is not a big city? And Donna maybe the K9 officer was off duty. - Magnum Fri, 13 Jun 2008 11:39:46 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5351 just fine.\" Uh, I don\'t think I agree gabby. Had they caught the two women,then it would have turned out just fine. Well, they didn\'t. I reiterate my question about the police dog. While officers are trained for high speed chases, betcha part of that training is a chapter on discretion. Have yet to see a stolen truck/cc/id more important than a human life. - Donna Christopher Fri, 13 Jun 2008 07:24:37 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5345 Easy now smurf!! I think it\'s worth chasing them most of the time! These officers are trained for high speed chases. If the circumstances were different, their actions would have been different. Not everything is always black or white! Unfortunately, we don\'t have privilege to the same information they may have had at the time. Why are you always so critical? Is there this kind of scrutiny in your occupation? Everything turned out just fine. No one was injured. For the record there are still other departments in Ca. and other states that still chase criminals. Can\'t catch them all, but keep trying!! - gabby Thu, 12 Jun 2008 23:47:29 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5344 with a handle like\"magnum\" you must be one tough hombre, or think you are. Most vehicles are stolen to use as getaway cars? Got any stats to back that one up? I thought most cars were stolen for parts, foreign markets and joyrides, but since our resident expert disagrees I must be wrong! Yes, of course stolen credit cards are worth flattening a pedestrian for, or colliding with another car. For the last time kids, they DON\'T chase cars in the big cities, and they have a lot of good reasons not to, it isn\'t because big city police departments don\'t understand the dynamics of criminal behavior or risk analysis. - smurf Thu, 12 Jun 2008 21:58:34 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5339 I disagree.. Most times, when people steal vehicles it is because they are running from other crimes they have commited or to crimes they are going to commit. In this case it looks that way. If they just let them get away with stealing vehicles than every one would run. - Magnum Thu, 12 Jun 2008 17:57:05 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5338 its just not worth chasing a stolen vehicle at such speeds in such a concentrated population. Lakeport PD used to have a working police dog. Is that no longer the case? - Donna Christopher Thu, 12 Jun 2008 17:45:04 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5332 By the way smurf, if you knew how to read and not be such a moron you would notice Garcia was not the persuing CHP officer, it was Crutcher, and Lakeport PD was involved in the pursuit you idiot. But I know you must be an expert on this topic as well. - Magnum Thu, 12 Jun 2008 16:13:06 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5330 So Smurf you moron I guess there is just one road in Lakeport, I know there is just a one track mind on your part. You are an idiot. - Magnum Thu, 12 Jun 2008 15:48:51 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/4535/919/#comment-5312 where were the lakeport PD? They went from Park Way to martin St. and lakeport PD couldn\'t head them off? Guess the Lakeport cop on duty was taking an unscheduled break at his girlfriend\'s house, since that seems to be a common occurance in that department. High speed chase through two miles of densely populated areas for a stolen truck, yep, good call guys! Also, nice job on letting the perps escape on foot Mr. Garcia, maybe it\'s time to get back on that tredmill, eh? - smurf Thu, 12 Jun 2008 07:34:58 +0100
