They call it “Operation Take Back Our Streets.” In 48 hours, it took 22 crooks off the streets.

So reported the police department late Wednesday.

The operation is run by the department’s tactical narcotics unit along with the feds. It conducted a five-month investigation into 29 people wanted on charges ranging from drug-dealing to weapons and violence. City cops John Healy and Charles Tyson are in charge of the operation.

The team snagged 22 of the 29 on Tuesday and Wednesday, the department announced. The team continues hunting for the others, with their captures believed “imminent.”

Meanwhile, for the second time in a week, the cops came across young children in the proximity of guns and drugs during a bust in the West Hills neighborhood. On Wednesday they executed a warrant on Valley Street and picked up two wanted men amid crack, “drug packaging material” and a loaded .357 handgun. A 6-year-old boy and 9-month-old female were right there. The cops notified the state Department of Children and Families and removed the children.

How about a new law? Convicted of drug/firearms/batery/assault offense, loose ALL forms of GOVERNMENT ASSISTENCE! No Section 8 housing, NO food stamps, NO welfare!

NOTHING!!

Is this to harsh for their children? TO BAD! They should have thought of THEM first!!

People should be responsible for their own actions!! if it negatively impacts their "minor issues", well, I can honestly say I didn't FORCE them to do what they did! They did it of THEIR OWN volition (a conscious(having an awareness of ones OWN thoughts) choice}! LOL, LOL!
By the way, IF you needed to read inside the...
{ ( ) }... go read about Reginald Mayo and the NEW SCHOOLS! You could be a candidate!

OK, Liberals! What have you to say of this?

No one in ANY public "job" should be allowed to have a pension after being convicted in a court of law!! ALL benefits should STOP immediately!

STOP the unions from "RAPING" the taxpayers! It is after all, the union contracts, AND the city, that "allow" this to happen!

Pensions should be based on "BASE SALARY" only! NO overtime added in! Just like the "little people" working in industry. At least those that have a pension as a "benefit".
