SHERIFF SHOULD ENFORCE THE LAW

Amazing. In the same weekend is a story about a county sheriff who
doesn't want to enforce the laws and a story about how University of
Iowa fraternity "men" have a higher arrest rate for drinking and
drugs than other male students. Guess whose parents would prefer that
they don't have arrest records? Guess whose parents are probably
supporting Lonny?

Currently, I don't drive on dark country roads, anywhere after
football games or downtown on any Thursday, Friday, or Saturday
night. I think I'll keep it up. Also, I'll keep calling to report
speeders and crazy drivers on Scott Boulevard after midnight. Not
that our police force will be doing anything about it. I wonder who
I'll sue after someone comes crashing through our fence, into the
bedroom and kills my children? A druggie is a druggie, a drunk is a
drunk, and they should both be arrested and off the streets.

Sheriff, earn your paycheck. Enforce the laws as written, or do us
all a favor and quit.
