Butler's High Ridge

from las vegas nv.hi my name is tom and i'm retired from detroit mi. for almost 3 yr.s now. i've been involve in crime prevention and neighborhood watch now for 2 years. i presented the program to over 1100 homes last year. my favorite saying "if you are not part of the soluction then you are part of the porblem" here in vegas too many people have a relaxed attitude which get's them into trouble. if i get a favorite acceptance i would like to let you folks know about the crime situation here in vegas, and how i'm helping to keep people safer. my first suggwestion is to keep your auto windows mostly up so no one can reach in and grab items off the front seat and always keep the doors locked. one person can dictract you on the drivers side while another can grab your personal stuff off the seat.in vegas i always tell people to use valet parking a f t e r they take the house key's off the ring. most of our homes have attached garages and we
should not leave housr key's and the garage door opener in the auto! because the registration with our name and address is in the auto. while we are in side the casino someone has a lot of time to visit our home! hope to write more next time regards from the city of lights tom

Thank you Tom! Good to hear from you!

Unfortunately it's not just in Vegas that people tend to have a relaxed attitude. It's a sure sign of asking for trouble since the first thing a criminal needs is opportunity.

As is said "the best defense is a good offense" so we all need to really pay attention to the who and what around us and listen to our instincts when something doesn't look or feel right. There's always time to go back if it turns out the situation is OK. Always be better safe than sorry.

Hang in there with the crime prevention work. It saves lives! Feel free to write anytime. We appreciate your kind and caring words!

Be safe and Take care
