Meth, meth, METH...
I've seen it around truck stops for years and seen the consequences on drivers...Not good.
I saw at least five meth-types tweakin' around town as I was passin' through the other day...Not good.
Can local law enforcement deal with meth effectively? The answer around the coffee shop was a resoundin' "NO!!"...Not good.
It seems one approach by certain St Helens business investors is to develop and mentor the very kinds of services that traditionally cater to ID theft and other meth-related crimes...Not good.
The above pictures taken from the Jail Inmate Census link are people who have been arrested for manufacturing meth. Manufacting! Do you know how bad this is?? Do you know of the toxic effects of a house down your street that is manufacturing meth? Do you know what condemned meth cookhouses do to the value of your neighborhoods? Not good.
What will the good people of St Helens do to tackle this problem?
"I'll ya what, we sure better getter done with this Sheriff's Levy comin' in November," somebody said between sips of coffee.
He's right. It may be crucial to this community. Take care of things here.

We need to do something. Meth is the scourge of our county, and we have only two road deputies to patrol it. The bad guys look at Columbia County as a place that wecomes them, because we can't afford law enforcement.
shoot them all I say
