People need to shop around. Concerning the shoplifting article in Wednesday's paper, I'm one of those people who will walk through a store and remind ladies to buckle their purse in with the child safety belt. That's one of the best things that a person can do. If you want to put your purse in a basket, buckle it in just like you would buckle in your child. You still need to keep a watch on it and keep your hand on the strap.
Nobody can pick it up and run without unbuckling it, and that takes time.
Keep your hands on your pocketbooks, and men should put their wallets in their front pocket. I would like to comment on the six-paragraph diatribe published on Dec. 7. The caller called George W. Bush a dictator, a conniver, a manipulator and a liar. In my opinion, the caller is not only a liar, but a coward. The presidential election gave the voters a lesson in economics.
