Are you kidding me ?

Yesterday on campus I witnessed a student receiving a ticket for jaywalking. He was crossing Magnolia Avenue near Domino's pizza. First off, getting a ticket for jaywalking on or near a college campus is absolutely absurd. We are all guilty of that so why should he be singled out ? That issue is debatable. Whats not debatable is the fact that two police cars were used for issuing the citation when not even a month ago Lauren Burk was robbed, shot, and left to die not too far from campus. I watched these two officers for 30 minutes, questioning, reprimanding, and flat out embarrassing this young man. Those 30 minutes could have been used looking for actual crimes and suspicious activity. Is this your idea of bumping up the man power to keep our community safe ? The Auburn Police department needs a good kick in the pants on what their priorities should be. Was it just a slow day at the police department or do we as a community really have a problem on police efficiency and where their services are most needed.
