Stealing a bottle of change from a public library is a lot like stealing from a church poor box. You can borrow " wisdom " in the form of books from a public library but you can't borrow " character ". At the Cranston Public Library maybe my overdue fines can make up for the lost funding.
But my friend Dave and I have noticed -while driving around Cranston - seemingly excessive number of police cars racing with their brilliant red and blue mesmerizing lights and that intimidating siren cacophony . We wondered if THEY were going after seat belt violators or cigarette butt bums. Dave did run over an empty six pack beer case last night.
Is there a CRIME WAVE IN CRANSTON ? Or does Mayor Fung - a Republican rival to Governor Gina Raimondo - favor POLICE STATE theatrics ?
There is now a full time security guard - a pleasant woman - in the Cranston Public Library near Garden City. Just the other day it seemed like she just caught some " bum " viewing forbidden stuff ( porn ? ) on a library public computer.
There is a digital photo of the library thief in action . I could not recognize him. A desperate drug addict or a frequent guest at Harrington Hall ? No excuse now that lucrative panhandling in the street cannot be banned in Cranston.
Can't Mayor Fung find a less depressing issue on which to become the next Rhode Island governor. In Knightsville I voted for him - violating my socialist principles - simply because nobody in the neighborhood had anything bad to say about him . And also he gave us a spaghetti dinner at Randall Manor.
