Pride in Out of Town Arrests is Flawed Thinking.

When we read the Arrest Report and do a simple search on where the people "Reside" we do find that most live outside of Grand Terrace.

Now we must ask, why are Drunk Drivers, and Drug Dealers, and Drug Users in Grand Terrace?

Are they visiting places that feed their addiction, or on their way home from feeding their addictions or intoxicant of choice?

Is there a correlation with the Graffiti?

Are Noise Ordinances being ignored allowing our "Guests" to Party at Bars or even in Private Homes in Residential areas, only later to get into cars and endanger themselves and others by driving while intoxicated?

Perhaps it is time to have an Ordinance that if you are arrested for DUI .08 the car is Auctioned off. IF you are Arrested for DUI it is Impounded. IF you are a DUI and Live in GT Your Picture should be on a Wall of Shame...

One thing is for sure. We don't need to INVITE more Drunks and Drug Dealers to GT, by allowing loud parties, more alcohol sales and consumption points in the city, and higher speed limits in part of town.

Red Ribbon Week should be a Red Ribbon Year in GT... and not just at schools but the entire city.
