It is frightening to think that these criminals are armed with the fire-power shown in several of these recent article's photos, especially in residential communities.
It really makes one wonder if these weapons were for bragging rights, or what they thought they would accomplish with them in a confrontation. Surely they realize it is a no win situation, or maybe they don't. Again, very scary.
Thanks again, and good work keeping the pressure on these criminals so they know Lee County is not a haven for these activities.
