I refer to the story headed 'Petty crime crackdown' on page three of last week's Devizes edition of the Gazette & Herald.
Having witnessed at first hand the devastating effects on victims of this despicable crime I was rather concerned to see that your newspaper regards burglary as 'petty'. I hope that this was just the wrong choice of words, or is it further evidence that society is rapidly losing the plot?
