CORRUPTION OUTRAGE
Reporter: Ezra James

A member of the rebels (gintanam3) took to the public to denounce law enforcement corruption across the nation. He stated he doesn't believe all officers are corrupt, but the majority are.

As an example to support his stance, he cited an incident where he was arrested while trying to defend himself from an unnamed attacker.

“I believe I have the right to protect myself.” Said the rebel.

“If I'm attacked I won't stand idle. I'll retaliate and kill my attacker.”

He then vowed to take up arms against any law enforcement he viewed as abusive or corrupt. Calling on other citizens to join the cause, he intends to form a vigilante militia.

Other citizens reacted with varying attitudes. Some applauded the rebel for fighting back against corruption. Others felt using violence was not the answer.

“Even though I am a cop, I agree with you.” Said one officer (BlueKatsukieBear).

“Just some of these cops don't deserve any power.”

Other officers did not echo the sentiment. One VPD officer (Tyler134) questioned the rebel's claim that he was arrested for self-defense.

“If your attacker runs from you, you aren't supposed to chase him/her down.”

For now it is unknown how effective this call-to-arms has been.

DRUG PROBLEMS
Reporter: Brandon Rubright

Drugs are a huge problem in Vindex and officers despise them. They can make people go crazy, cost a lot of money, and are, of course, illegal.

Recently, I interviewed SWAT member Tom Manson (TomCubed101) about the drug problem plaguing the nation.

What is your opinion on drugs being easily accessible in Vindex?

Tom: As a SWAT officer, this is not my department, but I feel it is a problem that needs to be fixed.

How do you think this issue can be contained?

Tom: It's really a matter of the people. Telling us who the suppliers

are and where they're coming from.

What do you think of Hargles and his store, SuperDrug?

Tom: Believe it or not, Hargles is a nice guy. As for SuperDrug, it's not going to keep going, no.
