SOLAR BOY Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 Off course. I shared this to help protect others. Please be careful on CL. I hope I get my books back but that's doubtful. But I'll make full effort to try. Thank you all for the thoughts and comments. This place is truly wonderful. And this hobby of ours is second to none.

I was laughing when someone I had contacted suggested a meet up at a mall but now I kind of get it. Glad to hear you're all good though! You never know what a desperate criminal might be willing to do! after the whole craigslists murder thing got pointed out everyone started scams on there, so the police made it known that if you are doing a deal use there parking lot and notify them if they can be a witness for the deal.

So the California state government is voluntarily paying the same protection money that NYC pizza shops used to dread being asked for, lest their windows need replacing weekly? Got it.

I just hope when election time rolls around opponents of these dolts hammer them with this. 'Joe Blow voted to pay gangbangers not to kill people!!!' WITH YOUR MONEY'.
