Stop Antioch Wal-Mart Expansion
 
It was heartening to learn that the six police officers targeted for layoffs is being postponed (story here). Public safety is of major concern to ACSG, as the Walmart is the major crime magnet in Antioch. If Walmart were such a strong community supporter, then why do they do nothing to step up safety at their store? In 2007, Walmart agreed to provide more security only if their expansion were approved. 

In a city facing bankruptcy and looking at layoffs to the police force, wouldn't it be nice if the largest and wealthiest retail giant in the world would help the city by increase security on their own accord.  Don't hold your breath
