Actually that's what the police did in a small city invested with an influx of drug dealers from Philadelphia. The crooks kept getting off on technicalities for the big stuff until a new Mayor was elected. .....under his orders they fined these guys 'for every little breach of the law'....from jay walking to parking outside the lines...to littering and playing their music too loud,and a host of other smaller issues.

The result was they were constantly having to “pay” attorneys to fight these in mass.....it drove them back to Philadelphia and out of the small city.

Apparently you missed the part where I said the drug dealers were buying up the town and the people being busted were driving ratty old cars and were short people. These are the working Mexicans and the drug dealers are allowed to go about their business.

Couple of weeks ago I asked a county mountie if they would stop by at our place of business because drug deals were going down in public. He said it is the city cops that are responsible and they will do nothing. He also told me that a business across the street was going thru the same thing and the city cops were doing nothing. From the mayor down the city officials are bought and paid for. That is what drug money does it buys immunity for the crooks and corrupts law enforcement from top to bottom.

If what was done here as in your city we would end the drug problem but it seems the drug money is just too important to the officials. This is what you get when looking after number one becomes the overriding objective.
