Defund the police - not just in the cities

| No Comments

Every action has a consequence and one homeowner just found this out the hard way.
From the London Daily Mail:

Hampton's man, 53, is shot dead after gunman broke into his $900,000 home on Christmas Day in targeted attack: Police attempt to calm fears in millionaires' playground of Southampton

    • Steven Byrnes, 53, was found dead at his home on 90 Roses Grove Road in Southampton at about 8.45a.m. Saturday
    • Police made the grim discovery after a 911 call about a nearby burglary
    • Initial reports claimed the killing was random but police in the posh East End town now believe his murder was no accident
    • No immediate arrests have been made. Detectives are asking anyone with information on the shooting to contact the Homicide Squad at 631-852-6392

A man who was found shot to death in his Hamptons home on Christmas Day was the target of a home invasion, police confirmed on Sunday.

Steven Byrnes, 53, was shot dead at the single-family home at 90 Roses Grove Road in Southampton at about 8.45a.m. Saturday, after police made the grim discovery following a 911 call about a nearby burglary.

And this:

'The investigation thus far has demonstrated that the actions here were not random, this was a targeted event,' Southampton Town Police Chief Steven Skrynecki told the Southampton Press.

'We have been getting calls from concerned community members about the fear of lingering.'

Yeah - defund the police?  Fine for the big cities.  Let them do what they want. I don't live there.
All of those "peaceful protests" and everything are just in the big cities.
There is no need for us to worry out here.

How long before the thugs and goblins realize that there are much better pickin's 20 miles outside of town.  The small-town cops are probably pretty well trained and armed but no match for a coordinated attack.  What if ten houses were hit at once. Organized crime would not do this - their capos live out there.  Show some respect.
Low-IQ street thugs with no impulse-control and delusions of grandeur?  Different story.
