Speaking of home invasions. This is brutal.

The lowlife apparently is going around town spending it.

That's a fairly distinctive looking bill, being orange and all, you'd think someone remembers who passed it and maybe there's security video of them.

Trust me, the cops don;t care.....do you think they are going to stop catching speeders and actually do some detective work? And the prosecutors won't look at it, unless they have a 99.9% chance of conviction, otherwise they may tarnish their reputations with an acquittal.

It's part of the war on hard currency by our governments, that began with going off the gold standard and introducing inflation into our money supply.

IMHO, this is a most unfair statement to make. While I was not a cop, I did work in the criminal justice system. As such, I had routine contact with officers in many departments and at many levels.

Police officers have to ideally, in the course of their work, display objectivity in their demeanor. Being objective, deductive and the like can easily give one the appearance of being uncaring. Maintaining objectivity in the face of what officers daily encounter is no easy task. Consider too, that officers are challenged to walk this emotional tightrope in both their professional and their personal lives. No easy task, that, in the face of often accusatory and angry victims; this, not to mention the revolving door judicial system that all too often bows to repeat offenders.

Of course, there are cops that don't care, as you say, but such a patently unfair claim can target any group of professionals who have specialized duties to perform. In the course of my work, contacting police officers, I found that the great majority of police officers did care and often went above and beyond their call of duty to address the needs of victims.

One simple case in point that I recall was ... One city cop I knew used to carry a roll of nickels in his pocket. Rather than issue a parking citation, he'd plug a meter. The local merchants loved that guy. So, cops don't care?

Quote for truth. A sad truth.

Please forgive my grammatical error......he he

Which leads to a dilemma. We want more collectors in the hobby, and we want more young collectors....but don't tell anyone you collect coins, especially young people who might talk too much or to the wrong people.
