“12:29 p.m. Resident in 7300 block of Reed/Hayden reports an elderly man is standing outside a car that’s flying a confederate flat and has “Dixie” written on the side.”

So, then, is it against the law to be elderly? Or was it the confederate flag? Has that become illegal, too?

You think the PF residents would know of this guy by now.

He is always around PF and very obvious. Herb, our society has become a snitch on your neighbor type. Everyone wants the police to deal with any slight issue.

I thought everyone knew that guy,He’s an interesting individual but I don’t know what is illegal about him standing outside of his car, Look around or read the paper is this really the best use of our Police and Sheriff’s deputies?
