Well well well the person in charge of the Lake Elsinore Police/Sheriff's Dept is a highly achieved…Read More black woman and she is doing a great job for the City. The majority of personnel in the department are Hispanic which is not considered a minority in Lake Elsinore. We do need our laws to be enforced and I support officers actually doing their jobs. When an officer is not doing the job correctly that is another subject. In the case of Lake Elsinore, I have to say this officer was doing his job and a good job from what I have read.

Regardless of what you think of Blacks, Mexicans etc., the fact is being targeted by someone because…Read More of your race is illegal just like the IRS targeting the TEA Party or any other group for that matter. This can only change through inclusion in the community and mentoring of youth. Will this solve all criminal elements?

We don't need anymore stinking laws, we need the law's on the enforced but not arbitrarily.
