text: Well crime isn't down, so do more, do something different, do something besides write a report about how crime may or may not be up or down!   Only someone not wanting to admit crime is up makes sure the report indicates that. Get tough on crime, get tough on drugs use and most importantly  get tough on manufacturers and sellers of drugs. Publish the arrests, take PFD away from felons, let us know when you bust the idiots. We are trying to find a way to justify crime isn't going up, great system we have, tolerance for crime. The mayor himself told you don't be out past midnight, that isn't enough to see we have a problem? Next time he speaks, he may say 11p, then what?  Lock your doors while you eat dinner?  Some already do I bet. Some will admit, some won't, we have lost  neighborhoods to crime already in Anchorage, kind of wrote them off, without saying it.  Stop giving in and take this city back. No more excuses or blinders.
