NEIGHBORHOOD COPWATCH

i saw a sunnyvale police squad car in the neighborhood at around 6 am yesterday as i went running, and i just wanted to say that traffic and/or speeding will increase when school starts in september, and the best time to patrol for speeding is between 8-9:30 am in the morning - and 5-7 pm at night (but! the main problem our neighborhood faces at the moment is teen-related, and happens at night between dusk and 3 am - since gangs are well known for using underaged teenagers to do their dirty work, is it time for another teen curfew here in the santa clara valley?)...
FRIEND OR FOE? i like to think that sunnyvale cop was there to protect and serve, but i am so used to them trying to intimidate me for my political activities and/or my watchdog activities regarding the peterson field wildlife situation, that i find it hard to believe this is the case - it could have something to do with this, as many cops are part of a brotherhood of sorts, but that's just too damn bad isn't it? - the bottom line: john lennon may have been scared about being monitored for his political activities, but i am not - if someone wants my fear, they haven't got it...
