I've read about the drug coalition making drug busts recently. Have you asked to meet with them? While I was reading your post, I also wondered if the drug coalition is already involved in it, and the spd officers are staying out of it, to not mess up something that is ongoing. Because, one sale is going to earn someone a slap on the wrist. Another thing, they might've known the sale was going to take place even before you witnessed it. Years ago I was on my way to a concert, with a large group of kids. There were about 4 cars full of us. We made a BR, stop, at a hotel along the way. We all entered the parking lot from different enterences and most of the girls headed into the building. I was the first one out, and when I opened the door, I was facing a line of cop cars, surrounding the lot. Doors open, guns drawn. Our guys that didn't go in, where face down, and I was freaking. The cops were removing seats from vehicles, etc. And they were mad as they were realizing we were just a bunch of long hair teens on the way to a concert, that had to pee. Right in the middle of their sting, waiting for a huge drug bust that they'd worked months on setting up. Wrong long haired hippy group. Bet we cost them tons of money down the drain. Shoulda peed in an alley I attended a few of the drug coalition meetings years ago, but then stopped being involved in things like that when the City declared me an illegal resident, not wanting their vindictiveness to get in the way of good causes. I support what the coalition does, educating the public about the problems here to try to create change is a good thing, although some people strongly disagree. I think that you are very confused about what the drug coalition is. Shoulda peed in an alley Why, because urinating in public is acceptable to you?

I see they are working on the fountian. By the looks of it, there is NO fountain left? Granted I have yet to venture into the park to see it up close. TOSH I've been meaning to ask you what is the picture that you have featured in your signature line on here? IT is a wooden cross...but with what on the bottom though? M It is a wooden cross, and tornado, and a Hall Street sign. My big brother is a master at carving, and he carved it out of one of my downed cedar trees. You should see some of his stuff. It is amazing. He did a miniature of the fireman kneeling at 911 for a retired fireman, that was there.

I think that you are very confused about what the drug coalition is. KYLE, I'm not confused at all, but you must be. If you see my post above, it describes coalition. It can be used for a number of groups that 'come together'. The specific coalition i was speaking of, and is obvious to most with good reading comprehension, is called TRI DENT. Our police force belongs to it. It was just in the news again yesterday, or the day before. Shoulda peed in an alley Why, because urinating in public is acceptable to you? Rflmao. Kyle, you really need to get a hobby! Lighten up a little. Laugh. Life is passing you by while you carry out your vendetta.
