But the two aren't mutually exclusive. Once you get into that lifestyle, it's easy to become addicted to drugs or alcohol. But, I guess my point is, no matter where they come from or how they got there, it's an issue the city needs to adress. Along with many other issues like crime in general and education. It's bad enough for locals who know what to expect and where to avoid, but we don't need tourists attacked by gutter punks.
Seems like the Mayor should maybe keep working on this job instead of planning for his next job already.
