New Police Chief to “Shake Things Up?”

by The Rock Relic

So the new COP (Chief of Police), Rodney Monroe, says he’s gonna make changes that’ll beef up crime-fighting in every Queen City community, huh??

Hey … I’m all for it! Some of the ideas he has, like cracking down on gangs, improving their patrols, smaller focus areas — and especially having more units in neighborhoods — oughtta be a boost to our area!
In a way, it sorta takes ya back to the old days, when things … wellll, they were a little safer.

Look … during my ‘rasslin’ days (as announcer, remember?), I did a lotta footwork in the Ashland/Huntington area of Ky/WV, and I/noticed a/lot (Sorry … heh-heh! … couldn’t resist …) that many of the crimes happenin’ were actually from out-of-state perps. They fed mainly on neighborhoods, created or joined gangs, etc.
The police? They were busy … er, doin’ something, but that didn’t include patrolling neighborhoods or havin’ a decent gangbusting unit or two (or three …)

The Charlotte area’s residents deserve what Chief Monroe is proposing. If he’s successful (and, look — it’s gotta be a combined effort; we’ve gotta work with ‘em on this!), then the Queen City could end up a role model for other law-enforcement agencies across-the-board! Or across America, for that matter …

Let’s get behind the man on this and support the issue. ‘Nuff said!

THE LITTLE BLACK BOX

Have you ever gone into a college, high school — or even the mall — and seen a big plasma or LCD screen with repetitive, informative messages or displays on it? Then you can thank the world of digital signage for that!
It’s one of the best advertising and promotion tools available to businesses, but it’s also a godsend to students who want to know the latest updates on classes, fees — even emergency procedures!
This is one tool that I’d recommend to any place of business (or institution of learning)!
Now, to find out more about how your school or business can benefit from the little “black boxes”, just click on the link I’m about to give you. Once there, you’ll find it’s not only easy to get started, but you’ll have all the support you need! They’ll explain what it is, why you should have it, and then, after all is said and done, present it to you at a very affordable cost!
Imagine, though; you’ve made a sale, helped a student, drawn more prospects your way — and any of these could be far more effective than just trying to email or hard-copy your info to them!
So, for the best in digital signage equipment, just click on the link you just passed …
and have a successful and profitable year!
