The Mayor has to crackdown on crime.
I guess he needs to start with himself then.
Something like that.
Big Island is really scary with its meth problems and low education levels.
Just like South Dakota?
Hang ’em both!….meth-heads anyway!
They had parents! How proud are they? Vermin that prey on society and expect society to feed, clothe and shelter them.
No hope in dope………banish them to Niihau? Or Nappy’s Nation in Nalo?
30 years old and a wasted life. What do these kind end up being? A dependent of tax payers?
