  1. I noticed this sentence:

    “The driver was identified as a 29-year-old Newton man, who was summoned to Waltham District Court on a charge of threats to commit a crime.”

    Since members of Antifa and Black Lives Matter continually threaten to (and often actually do) commit crimes (riots, looting, arson, etc.), my question is this:

    Why aren’t they “summoned to” court?

    My guess is that there is sympathy towards them by DAs and Attorneys General who simply look the other way and don’t prosecute.

    Too bad. I guess laws don’t apply to some people. No wonder there is so much lawlessness.

  2. The CVS theft story…shows ya how brazen or just plain STUPID criminals are. Camera are everywhere….should be an easy bust for the local police. GO GET EM!!!!!
