What do you guys think?

Did everyone notice the new section we put out on Tuesday, for Ridgecrest Most Wanted? I think it would be a great idea to publish this somehow in the blog; but I’m wondering if folks might get offended? The purpose of the section displays names and faces of folks who are missing, assumed [...]
