Orange County law enforcement conducts curfew sweep

Hundreds of law enforcement officers worked into early Friday rounding up youths in Orange County's first countywide curfew sweep -- part of an effort to crack down on truancy and gang recruitment.

Excuse me....but I posted a polite comment yesterday. Why wasn't it posted???

67 picked up by 300 cops countywide? Putting kids in the back seat of a police care to scare them? Give me a break. Why is the DA involved with this??? Curfew is a status offense not prosecuted by the DA....how much did this cost the citizens when the $$$ is so much better spent on getting the bad guys. And, if this was about getting the gang bangers, how many did they actually reel in? Looks like (drum roll please....) a grand total of one.

Behind the orange curtain, well intentioned folk can see what can be done for their citizens, not to them.

This is GREAT NEWS! I have 2 boys under 18 & I have GPS system on their cell phones. I have told them that they can stay out late on the weekends & have to check in with me or I will track them down. On weekdays they can not stay out after 8:00pm.
P.S. I don’t want to hear excuses that you don’t know where your kids are at.
I'm a single MOM.
