Eureka is called EuTWEEKa by some because of the subculture of methamphetamine criminals infesting that city. You would think they would want legitamate business bringing in new jobs to a job starved California North Coast area, but no, rational thinking is to be avoided at all cost least some suffering family breadwinners find some relief by securing a job to support their dependants.

However, to be fair, if this was happening in Arcada just to the north of this small city they would likely have a much bigger outcry then we see here in this article. A neutron bomb set off above the town square there in the height of summer in Arcada would deprive the state of California of a sizable number of anarchist and neo-hippie kids who wander the country in a loose circuit of cities somewhat tolerant of their antics and mooching.

So in my mind, as I have watched the 'Food not Bombs' collective feed these people in the shadow if the statue of the dead President there, I have often pondered the question that name brings to mind: Food or bombs, bombs or food, what a choice to make. Do we feed, or bomb them for free? Gosh, what a hard decision to make. (Disclaimer for those too serious and literal about some things; I am using humor here and not seriously implying any bombs should be used in Arcada, relax.)

You are sure right about Arcata and the Meth culture pervasive here on the north coast. There was even a rumor that a chemical from a meth lab killed the salmon on the Klamath.

Eureka has been very ProBusiness over the years and may still be so dispite the newly elected mayor that is a director of the biggest nonprofit (read tax money vacuum)in the north state, That would be the RCAA.. I won't mention our new District Attorney and his agenda.

Re: not seriously implying any bombs should be used in Arcada..

You couldn't anyway, the City of Arcata Nuclear Weapons Free Zone Commission would have to approve first.

(Yes, there truly is such an agency)
