Being a student at mt.lukens continuation I believe that there should be more police men roaming around all the time because it's really easy for somebody to get approached because there are very few people that are on the streets, just walking home from school is very uncomfortable because since we get out at 12:30 there is nobody out and you don't even see any cop cars roaming around, you see cop car parked with nobody in them but that's about it, I think seriously LAPD should step up their game and roam around everywhere especially near the schools and school areas

I understand your concern AJ, but have you ever heard of the punctuation mark called a PERIOD! And do you know what a run-on sentence is? If not, look at your post because you violated some serious English rules....ijs.
