For 10:35.....NAILED IT....!!!
10:35, you forgot another important lesson, "Protection Schemes: Making Crime Pay for You."
Thanks KF and 10:36. Great that they offer this. Some of you naysayers should give it a try. Would give you some insight and perspective and make you a good citizen.
I am getting too old to run in a serpentine fashion.
My answer to crime is to shoot them when they try to commit a crime.

'...and make you a good citizen.'
Well, I already am one, and don't want to spend a week after work attending show & tell bull about how great and professional they are, while ignoring the obvious.. 10:35 summed it up nicely. Pass.

Glad you're a good citizen. Insight and positive energy will do wonders for you. Maybe you won't be so tired after work.
@10:35 Please give the Jackson bashing a rest. At least they are trying to make a difference. All people do on this blog is complain about how bad Jackson is, well why don't you stay here and try to help improve things instead of running away.
3:51 - for my money I'm glad these folks that think they are "a good citizen" are gone and hope they stay away. I just wish they would STFU. If they ever had an original thought it might be ok to put up with their crap, but to read the same bash over and over does nothing
It does something. It tells you that quite a few people know what is going on in Jackson.
