Would be nice if Puna had a private security company to come when you call.
If you have been on this forum long enough you'll see these types of posts over and over. Cops are way too busy to go bust people ... There is no $ for what you want them to do.
In oregon if you get robbed, don't waste your time calling the cops, just call them and they will mail you a form so you can fill it out for your insurance claim! Seriously!
Why do you think we hand out FOOD stamps TO ANYONE that asks? It's cheaper to give out 400 dollars for food every month than to have a cop being called on a shoplifter. There are no resources and time in jail is a strain on the taxpayer and state not to mention the court systems are already overloaded.
As budgets get slashed and economy keeps going into the dump ... Don't expect it to get any better any time soon. Just have good neighbors willing to confront problems as they arise along with any limited support from law enforcement.
You could always burn your video to a CD/DVD and mail to the police station??? If it get's lost burn 10 of them and keep bugging them till something get's done? I would imagine that in the dark, there are no good shots of faces on the video? On a side note, you can buy 4 gig usb drives for like 5 bucks.
