Sunrise, Florida SperlingViews

I have lived in Sunrise, Florida since 1961, I recently moved however, my parents still live in the same house. My father was robbed at gunpoint at the front door of the house, my son was held up at gunpoint at the Bank of America, my daughter at 9 had a gun pulled on her, my son again was kidnapped at 12 at gunpoint, robbed and left to walk home from a few miles from home. Turns out the guy that robbed him killed an employee of Miami Subs on University Dr. We found out from the Lauderhill police department knocking on our door at 4.00 am after they found my son's stolen property at the site which the gunman dropped. My parents just this year have had their home broken into and robbed of all quick sellable gold, jewels, gems, coins. They didn't get into the safe, but give them a couple of months and while my parents were gone on vacation they came back with a professional apparently who broke into the safe and stold the rest of the family heirlooms. What have the wonderful cops of the city of Sunrise done. NOTHING. No follow-ups to anything. Crime is NOT reported propertly or followed up with and if you are thinking of moving to Sunrise, I would advise strongly against it. Sunrise is a huge Ghetto with the Ghetto of Lauderhill backing it up. Check out Lauderhill's crime stat's. Stay AWAY from SUNRISE unless your a thief.
