Crime. Crime its in the streets.  My name is Detective Frank Franklin and I'm that thin blue line that separates decent law abiding citizens against criminals who commit crime. This is my story. I was driving my police car home after a long weekend of police work. I pulled up to my little one story bungalow type house. It wasn't much but it's all a guy like me can afford on a cop salary. I looked forward to a nice long evening of watching baseball on the television and drinking a beer, etc.
