I have had to leave my home twice to prison breaks in Winslow. I don't think you guys need a bigger prison when you can't really take care of the one you have...The unknown name I understand what you mean that anyone going to Winslow should have a gun..I personally hate Winslow, Arizona and wish it would be wiped off the map completely. I know Holbrook needs more businesses but wouldn't want anything to do with bringing a prison here. Our jails are over crowded and people are getting away with everything here...The HUGE problem with the Police Departments in Navajo County are that SO MANY of THEM ARE DIRTY..They are doing the crimes along with all the other people on the streets doing the crimes trying to make themselves look like role models is ridiculous and I say that knowing that Holbrook isn't much better than Winslow when it comes to crimes... Drugs and gangs are a big issue in both towns and these wanna-be gang members need to find something else to do other than harass others. There are tons of unsolved murders in Navajo County but there is also nothing anyone can do about it.....UndercoverAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7032728144217817166.post-72871667845087259982010-10-12T11:00:42.074-07:002010-10-12T11:00:42.074-07:00WELL I DONT know how this guy sez winslow is overw...WELL I DONT know how this guy sez winslow is overwhelmingly in favor of this project. this is the first ive heard of this thing. <br />winslow needs all the businesses and job producing projects it can get.<br />since the state now allows citizens to carry concealed weapons without a permit i dont see much of a problem<br />myself i went thru the training course and refreshers courses to get my permit <br />as a bit of information<br />when the walmart expanded they couldnt find enough potential employees that could pass a drug test so they had to bring in people from other stores. that pretty much tells ya how the new private prison would fit in with the town.<br />realistically im glad to hear something is coming into winslow that will produce jobs. if they need applicants to pass a drug test tho they may be out of luck <br />thats just the way it is in winslow<br />there have been no public hearings on this issue that ive heard of <br />thats not surprising tho the bunch at the city run the town like its there own business. you cant even get decent police response on crimes so i doubt theyd be much help in case of a prison break<br />personally im pretty sure the families that follow the prisioners here will be the main<br />catalyst of new crime which is sure to follow a project such as this <br />im at a loss as to how a private prison would bring security to winslow<br />i was the the victim of an attempted home invasion 26 years ago and since that time remain<br />vigilant. that and an incident of attempted false imprisionment also years ago are about the biggest problems ive had here<br />i dont know whats up with the pd<br />i think its just a matter of who you are and if they feel like doing something when it comes to protecting the community against crime.<br />there was a murder long ago that was only solved after the murderer himself got drunk and slipped up and told about murdering his cousin and burying him outside of town. till that time the murder was unsolved. your best bet here is to have a gun and know how to use itAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7032728144217817166.post-9213344211806964062010-02-21T19:21:14.282-07:002010-02-21T19:21:14.282-07:00Winslow has been a 'Prison Town' for over ...Winslow has been a 'Prison Town' for over twenty years. Winslow needs this prison, Winslow is overwhelmingly infavor of having this new prison and welcomes the jobs, housing boom and security it would bring. If this is so bad then why is there a FIGHT for which Arizona town gets it? The Chief of Police himself told me that there has NOT been an increase in crime due to the existing state run prison.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
