Police, aided by a helicopter and K-9 unit, swarmed a Perry Hall neighborhood near Joppa and Silver Spring roads Tuesday evening after a reported burglary, police said.
Shortly after 7 p.m., a homeowner on the unit block of Spring Creek Way reported that three juveniles had attempted to cut open a side window screen, according to Officer Mark Dorsey of the Parkville police precinct.
There was no entry and nothing was taken, Dorsey said.
A police helicopter and dogs assisted with the search for suspects, but no one was found or arrested, he said.
Did you notice the helicopter over the area? What do you do to defend your home against burglary? Tell us in the comments.
It doesn't appear any suspects have even been identified in any of these cases. I am hopeful they are all related and we can sleep easier once they are caught.
I've done this with a few pesky squirrels and none of them have ever come back.
Do you ever wonder why Asian school kids are much smarter than American kids in mathematics and science and many times possess better reading skills and often speak better english than American kids? It's their culture. They concentrate on the reading, writing and arithmetic not social issues. Right now I can find a 2nd grade girl from the middle east whom I know of that possess the reading, language and social skills far beyond that of most high school graduates in this area. American kids don't need to be taught in school that it's ok to have two daddies. This is why they are so successful and why China is creating more engineers than any other country on the planet. Once we figure this out we might start having a brighter economy and future in this country. I doubt if we ever will do so as there has been a conscious effort in this country to dumb school kids down and attack issues of moral character and religion. {Sarcasm On} It's much more important be PC in this country than successful. {Scarcasm Off}
The school is their to serve everyone, green, brown, white, gay, religious, straight, not religious, etc.The public school is to teach and expose children to the world as it is, not how you believe it should be. Asian children have high parental involvement in their child's education, thus the good result. Other opportunities like home schooling and private schools exist for those who wish to narrow their child's educational and cultural experience.
At least you were able to comprehend my point about parental involvement in their kids education although you failed to acknowledge that other cultures do not embrace left wing ideology in their education systems. Such formula produces the results I believe should be achieved in American schools. It's not the duty or responsibility of schools to teach such issues, that belongs to the family. Yet you would suggest that those taxpayers who do not adapt to your beliefs get out of the school system and go elsewhere. I would say that's a pretty despicable and intolerant comment itself. I would suggest that many whom have been educated in the manner you advocate do not see the world as it truly is. Our government and school system have failed us. They see the world in a rather naive and delusional manner.
Educating all means teaching them about all that exists, not moralizing about what is acceptable behavior as you do.
I would suggest that if you wish the public schools teach other than reading, writing, arithmetic, American and world history and willing to knock out the social engineering classes that maybe you might endeavor to open up some type of business in which parents who seek such education could send their kids after hours. I wonder how successful such a concern would be. Not very, I suspect. As for pulling my kids out of school and heading to private schools, that would be perfectly acceptable with me if the county, state and federal government would absolve me annually of any and all taxes paid into the public school system. I find this rather funny as in 9th grade I was in an advanced algebra class. I was in an accident and out of school for a month. Most of my teacher in junior high I found to be rather odd or stupid and not good teachers at all and unwilling to help. (Not much better in HS either) In this class I seemed to be lagging about 6 weeks behind. While home a senior from Cardinal Gibbons High tutored me. When I returned to school I was well ahead of the class and often corrected the teachers mistakes.
Let's see if in the future if we can discuss the policy and not the person. Agreed?
