ATLANTA BARB-Page 2 Do unto others as you would have them Did you ever read the story about the nice young couple who drive by the old lady as she's being mugged. And keep on driving. This nice young couple. These pillars of the commun ity are suffering from the great American disease called Apathy. Better known as “I don't want to get in* volved'.' And they're all wet. They are in volved. In Georgia. Apathy is in its critical stipes. More crimes are committed than ever before The burglary business has never been better. Mugging, rape and drugs have become household words. And people are being killed. Apathy is killing people. And with the odds being what they are. it won't always be the other guy. Deadly though Apathy is, the outlook is good because the cure is so simple. Involvement. Get involved. Care. Care enough to get mad. And get mad enough to report a crime if you see it com mitted. Call your local sheriff or police de partment if you see anything even remotely suspicious. And if you can't do it for purely unselfish reasons, do it for yourself.
