Whoa! Must have been a happening party last night down the street.

As cars began to collect along the street, two police cars drove in after ten. Maybe there was a traffic flow problem, so that would have been legit. But then, another police car drives in around three thirty, probably to confirm everyone had left. Then, at six, when a long-time walk group left on foot, there was the usual intrusive over-reaction with another police cruiser. And, when a woman walks into the development, yet, another police car drive-thru.

I wonder if there will be a police report to explain the heighten vigilance.

Being a cop is a tough enough job; support them, don't dis them.
