Where rabid law enforcement presumes the ability to punish Flagstaff into paradise, one must ask a great deal about the true source of the problems locally. Alcoholism is a health problem foremost and if a man isn’t driving a car, we’re talking about protecting citizen sensibilities with the criminal law. That is neo-fascist, and it is, as you will find out over time, a very slippery slope. In Flagstaff, mere appearance on the street is grounds for detaining and intellegience gathering. We gut the federal constitution because the wealthy elites of Flagstaff do not want poor people in its midst? Well, the rich had better catch on as to who made these people so poor. Next in line for the police batons and jack boots the wealthy love so much here, are the wealthy themselves. They will be all that is left to feed this rabid law enforcement is our god of fortresses machinery. As we feed this growing evil in our midst, one must ask: “Who’s really drunk anyway?”
