The Obtuse Blogger (TOB) and another long, silly list of crime in Lake Worth

TOB confirms on her blog she is indeed "Obtuse".
OK, there is crime in Lake Worth. Also have it on good authority, if you can believe sources like The Palm Beach Post and NBC5/WPTV, there is crime in a few other areas in Palm Beach County as well. But TOB has a habit of posting these obnoxiously long lists of crime which no one is going to read, or verify, except for a reader of my blog with an attention to detail.
From a previous silly list: "Beverage Violations" are not crimes.
In TOB's latest rant about crime in Lake Worth are these:
  • 5 Beverage Violations
  • 6 Other (what is "Other"? Not defined. Is "Other" a new crime?)
  • 1 Disturbance (a car stereo too loud?)
How many crimes this time are outside the City of Lake Worth? 7
  • 2700 BLOCK 6TH AVE S
  • 3100 BLOCK OF SCANLAN
  • 2600 BLOCK 6TH AVE S
  • 1600 BLOCK OSBORNE CIR
  • 2400 BLOCK 2ND AVE N (2)
  • 6200 BLOCK PINE DR
All this information is thrown against the wall without any context and also note that she never posts a list of arrests made; isn't that interesting?

This is nothing new from TOB; here is just one more example of her lack of research: The 6200 BLOCK OF PINE DR is west of Lantana and south of the PBC Airport, how could she not know that?
