Desert mayor is someone to emulate

Read this story from the AP about a mayor out in the Mojave Desert. It's very interesting.

    The mayor, 58, promoted an anti-crime campaign, fueled in part by threatening to throw poor people out of subsidized housing if their children didn't behave. Crime dropped more than 30 percent in two years. And he pushed through a law giving the city the right to cut the testicles off pit bulls after he decided the dogs were being used by street gangs to intimidate people.

    "No gang-banger wants a pit bull that doesn't have dangling parts," Parris says, laughing heartily.

Imagine that a non-Liberal idea, like telling parents they must control their children, actually works! Liberals must be fuming about this mayor.
