[Vision2020] MPD Press Release - Alcohol Citations

[Dan Carscallen]

Donovan (and vizzz peeps),

 

Last fall (2008) Moscow Ambulance responded to the Kibbie Dome parking lot
for some underage drunken student who had an injury of some form or another
at almost every home game, and a few were pretty serious.  MPD's presence
this year, along with rules closing down tailgating in the student areas at
kickoff time, greatly diminished our need to respond.  I don't think we had
any calls for incidents with overzealous tailgaters this year.

 

To me, that's not a waste.

I hate it when police do these types of entrapment schemes.

 

I understand the police need to break up high school parties with drugs and
alcohol, but this tagging 18-21 year olds at college parties for giving a
beer to someone they have reason to believe is of age doesn't help anyone
and is a total waste of taxpayer money at a time when taxpayer funds is very
limited.

 

I think this time and money would be better spent writing jaywalking warning
tickets. Or spending time safety patrolling the UI Campus.

 

Your Friend,
