You see cars with blocked out windows. You hear thump-thump car radios a block away. You hear tires squealing and racing going on. You see extremely aggressive driving, many times looking like they are purposely trying to cause you to hit them or cause an accident. Trashing and littering and dumping go on everywhere.
Serious crime deserves serious attention, and serious punishment.
Everyone needs to respect the law, and be able to respect the law officers. This doesn't happen in Noel. If anyone breaks a law, they should expect to be caught and punished sufficiently so that they won't ever even think about doing that again. A little slap on the hand doesn't do it. The more serious crimes, felonies, drugs, DWI, etc., deserve the maximum punishment allowed.
