Cop at movie theatre in Lexington Park?

[misslady67]

New ownership and management in LP has hired police to work part-time for security purposes. The new owners are going to be doing a phased complete renovation. They want to make a lot of changes...and we need it!

The hookers and the drug dealers on the corners I guess were not a clue?

Told the manager *and* the uniformed cop at the door. No avail. The next step would have been to escalate the situation. But I be damn if I go through all that for a bunch of punk kids. Yea, they got away with it, the manager allowed it, the cop allowed it, hell, I allowed it. The only way around it (I think) is that the manager and/or cop should have thrown them out. In today’s politically correct world, it’s just not in my best interest to get involved; I’d get thrown in jail before the punks.

yep

I'd rather make some , get a blanket and watch a movie at home. It is way cheaper and a lot less aggravating.

That is sad. At that point, I would have told the manager I wanted a refund. If the manger would not give a refund, then I would get the name of the manger and file a complaint against the manager with Sony. I've done that before, too. Makes for change ... at least in management.

I agree... Id rather stay home and wait for the dvd to come out...

I think the cops are there now do to the "punks" and drug dealing, just what a guy told me... so I dont know how true that is... thats just what he heard from a guy who worked there supposibly...
