Oh wonderful. So now we have to be paranoid about every jogger that comes up from behind, because they might be a bag/purse/whathaveyou snatcher. The more this happens, the more some folk are going to carry, legal or not, all because the police can't do a thing about it. Wait and see.

Get the cops off their butts and walking the streets. They certainly get enough money to walk a beat.
