Thank you, Sheriff Adams, for giving us a very clear plan and agenda for keeping our county safe and dealing with the drug problems that have dragged our county’s good name into the mud. I sympathise with the families who have a son or daughter hooked on drugs, but I’m really tired of spending my tax money to give them a lot of handholding.

What I really want to do with my tax dollars is to support our law enforcement officers. They put their lives on the line every day. Let’s let our deputies put the criminals in jail where they belong and make our communities safer. Mrs Moore, put our tax money where it belongs: in the Sheriff budget and stop putting it all into the health department where they use a lot of the money to hire more government workers to “supervise” things.

I’m disgusted! Wasn’t cecil county cited by the governor as a problem area in Maryland? Who does Moore think is going to fix the problem? I’m pretty sure it’s law enforcement.

When is the last time our deputies got any raise to speak of? They leave every day they work to take care of us the citizens of Cecil county not knowing if they will come home. Where is the gratitude? Where is the support?!

It’s like they are being punished for beefing up these different specialties by not being given the funds to add more deputies! And if you aren’t competitive who wants to come work in a drug and crime saturated community?

I have kids in school and understand the schools need more funding as well but come on this is getting ridiculous. What has to happen for law enforcement to get what they need. Fine raise my taxes but please support the people that are keeping my home safe!
