[QUOTE="InsuranceLadyAmanda, post: 5538190, member: 64728"] The state of our police forces is close to unbelievable. Having spent time with [URL]http://cambscountrysidewatch.co.uk/[/URL] and listened to their back story I found the small team involved both inspiring and impressive. They as a group are tackling rural crime head on and after 25 years the Cambridgeshire Police force have come to rely upon very heavily. That is the bit that I found to be the sad truth of it all. Our police force just do not have the resources or time to respond and even if they do it is extremely rare that they will be able to convict anybody due to needing ultimate proof. It is definitely a period in our history where we all have to act as our own "police" and try to prevent crime from happening in the first place. There are many different security systems out there in the market now that offer real time alerts which can cost about £500 for a basic package which will do far more than fitting an expensive CCTV system where all you end up with is a video to watch after the event. If farmers get together and work together to build a security network then criminals will soon learn and move their attentions elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
