Warwick is not a crime infested city and it shouldn’t be portrayed as one. I get wanting to post about a senseless tragic murder but reporting car break-ins, DWI, and underage children fighting in school is a bit over the top.

This thread, and all other crime threads in this subform, should be subsumed into the Providence Crime thread and retitled Rhode Island Crime. Can I get a second? A third? A fourth???

Of course, you're right. But, our crime duo wouldn't get the attention their creepy fix requires.

No reasonable person would say this isn't Warwick related.

As for including it in this thread, would you have preferred a new thread?

.
And what does the picture of his home tell us? What did we learn? Are you going to visit it? Do you think people shouldn't relocate to it?

You could have done a kindness to his neighbors.

I am all for that. Rhode Island is so small that it makes perfect sense!

I mean DWI’s, car break-ins and underage children fighting in school don’t really need to be reported in this forum.

The Third World is now here.

I remember seeing Third World crime tactics years ago. Things like people on scooters sweeping in to grab purses and phones. That is now here. Things like criminals following people home from the bank and robbing them. That is now here. Things like ramming cars into store fronts to steal a pittance. That is now here.

We are now awash with Third World crime tactics, like all these car break ins.

The next tactic will be kidnap-ransom. Your kid will be kidnapped when out playing around and it will take $5k to get him back, wired to a bank account in Venezuela. It is coming folks. We either go nuclear on criminals now, or it is coming.

You'd like if the board was just renamed the RI Crime Board and was a 24/7 roll in the muck, but nah.
