  1. Darlene, you’re right that they have cameras, but they are usually pretty grainy and take great shots of the tops of hats and hoods. Sigh.

  2. Thank the Governor’s office. When you get around to catching them , they’ll probably have the same smirk on their faces. Knowing they wouldn’t spend a night in jail. I pray for your safety. It’s bound to get worse.
