Issue: Law Enforcement
I dunno. This whole scene, with Pawlenty cutting LGAs, then we're supposed
to declare parts of the city a disaster area? Maybe the whole state,

not reducing the law enforcement effort at all. And

We need to go out to those Republican's districts and
work to defeat them in 2004.
It's worth remembering that the Republicans haven't had much power in the state

While I understand the need to be fiscally responsible from a budgetary
standpoint on issues such as rental property licensing/inspections, I also,
on the other hand, understand how easy it is to build a case for doing so
with quantifiable statistics, such as what you've done.

Criminals were allowed to
shoot people in poor neighborhoods long before the right to carry bill passed.
Having lived and brought up a family in one of the "War Zones" for years before
that law passed, I can honestly tell you that it has NOT made much difference at

Today's lead story in the Strib was 12 state troopers for Jordan.
Granted 12 extra pair of hands are very helpful, but applying pressure

used in areas where there is the highest number of 911 calls. I know

What is even more 'ducky' is the absolute lack of any type of investment in
Jordan, or any other low-income community of color in Minneapolis, that will
