    And the point of this story would be? I can walk into any given restaurant or bar on the OBX and pick out handfuls of people who have coke on them or in their car.

    Better than wasting their time with potheads, but still… what a waste of time. The 50 guys ready to take his place are happy that LEO removed some competition.

    Law Enforcement has a difficult never ending challenge.Fact is they can use some help from citizens and state and federal agencies!!Eliminating these dangerous criminals is somewhat like fishing..Catch ‘em one at a time..or use a net to catch more!!I support their efforts and sacrifices they make every time they go to work!! Substance abuse is the worst form of destruction in our community!!

    So glad Carol wants to continue wasting $50K per year per drug dealer to lock them up on our dime… has coke gotten any less available? What good are the cops doing?

    I LOVE to see LEO bust actual crooks who steal things… but people like Carol would rather they continue to waste time on victimless crimes.

    Really obxdad… a victimless crime? If you’re a dad as your name implies, what if it’s your child that dies from an overdose on cocaine sold to them by a drug dealer that we just didn’t bother to lock up because it’s a “victimless crime”. I’m sure you’d be talking out of the other side of your face then.
