'Do Take It Personal' is not about slamming law enforcement officers. We often write and expose more than simply law enforcement issues in our communities.

In order for Consumer Confidence to hit a 16-year low in the month of May 2008, it would take a newborn baby to become a High School Junior in 11th Grade.
