Vigilant

We all need to be vigilant. Take the woman who reported a flasher to the police. She had her two tykes riding their little bikes on a footpath where bikes were prohibited. She wasn't even from that town. Now we have this man out for his morning exercise, circling this path in a public park, going round and round, wearing cargo pants covered by an oversize shirt.
According to this woman, this fellow's pants were hanging down, with his zipper open. Of course, vigilant suburban cops immediately responded with an unmarked car driving past seven times according to the accused. The undercover cop actually asked why he wasn't wearing sneakers.
As any sensible person can deduce, the disgusting walker, with a clean record, a local property owner, undoubtedly had all sorts of nefarious goals while traversing this track. Thank God this woman was there to report him and protect her two precious children. And thankfully the prosecutor released this man's arrest to the media so they could print his photo and pretty much ruin his reputation.
I say more of this needed. Monitor walkers, bus stop loiterers, public transportation starers, delivery men who look somewhat slovenly, bikers whose shirt rides up on them, and let's really keep an eye on those beady-eyed crossing guards who are supposed to protect the kids. More vigilance, more questioning, more arrests. I'll bet that woman is sleeping better. Of course, if one wanted to expose oneself, perhaps walking around a track is not the most effective method. You would think.
