Blot out the remarks

Is anyone besides me getting sick and tired of the “want to be a comic” who writes the police blotter?

Have they ever been a victim of a crime? Do they think it is funny to have your house or car broken into or getting your business robbed?

Can’t this person just write the reports without adding their own ha-ha to it?

Can’t the Reporter find a grownup with a life to write for them?

Crime of any kind is NOT funny. It devastates the victims. We just want the facts.

– Melissa Franzen
