In an Arkansas city they essentially have an 24/7 curfew law and you cannot even go in your front lawn without a good excuse.Quote:

They are being arrested for going outside... Personally I don't think going outside in broad daylight makes a person a terrorist.

Me either. I think it's "terrorific" for the state to force such a curfew onto the people, especially when there is no real danger present, right?

Helena-West Helena, AR - Go home or go to jail! Those are the only two options for people living in one Mid-South neighborhood. The mayor of Helena-West Helena, Arkansas has issued a mandatory curfew. The curfew is in place for an area he refers to as a "hot spot" for crime. It applies to anyone, any age, and any time of day.
According to Mayor James Valley, this move is in the best interest of the city. Valley said, "This curfew is for all people...everyone is subject to be stopped - almost like marshal law.” And that's exactly what some are calling it. The mayor has issued a curfew for a neighborhood that extends about a mile - not too far from city hall. If you're caught outside without a good enough excuse, you're going to jail.
"It's zero tolerance, you're going to jail," said Mayor Valley.
It's an idea that's okay with resident Martha Coleman. "You never know where a bullet is going to go, who's house it's going to hit and sleeping on the floor because you don't know where a bullet is going to go. It might be in my house or my neighbor’s home, so I commend the police department," said Coleman.
But others say instead of addressing the problem, this will make things worse. Instead of "Home Sweet Home," the past 24 hours have been a nightmare said one resident.
Resident Richard Robinson refers to it as, "jail - you can't come out your own home, you can't go to the store without being harassed by police." While Robinson applauds the city's efforts he says the police department is handling this the wrong way. “When police tell you, you can't come outside and you are on your own property, I think that's marshal law and it can only be enforced by the National Guard - That's my opinion," said Robinson
But after several rapes, robberies and shootings, Mayor James Valley says he's exhausted all possibilities. And he says this is the best move to turn around what some are calling a rough area.
Mayor Valley said, "This turf belongs to taxpaying citizens, not to hustlers and drug dealers...We are going to pop them in the head."
The residents of this neighborhood aren't the only ones in uproar. Eyewitness News Everywhere has learned that the American Civil Liberties Union has sent a letter to the mayor claiming his curfew is a violation of the 1st, 4th and 14th amendments.

They should be able to migrate her, since our policy influenced is what caused the laws that created the gangs! We are in the end to blame.

Not quite an argument. The geneeral consensus here is the the drug laws allow the cartels to have their black markets, and since we were the main nation to push for these laws then this is our fault, so we should take responsibility. And by them I mean people escaping the violence migrate, immigrate, I don't care, don't be a grammar Nazi.

it is funny. no war has ever been won in the Asia region without first gaining control of the opium trade. Ever, that is what some books I have read say. It may not be true, its sounds like conjecture, but I like to think its is probably true. Lets look at the current arab problem. opium is a magnificent means to fund there wars against us and the Hebrews. I guess what I am saying is that drug pushres have existed as long as there have been whores.

know, drugs were the spark that lit the law fires, at least the ones that relate to drugs. Laws are in my opinion almost always reactionary.

hillary clinton isnt the foremost authority on drugs is she? well, I guess is you include the time bill was governor in Arkansas and was flying cocaine into Mena Airport, seems she's part of the cartels and maybe she would be an expert

I agree to a point....... While I find this to be a true statement,we made the enviroment for the drug cartels to flourish...... I cant accept the second part though.
By that logic ,me not hiring a armed guard for my building made me the creator of a thief.........basically that logic sayes I created the the thief,because I had no razor wire and poision dart traps,its my fault some guy is a thief.
Now I agree it was my fault for not being as prepared as I could have been,but in no way did I create the thief,he already existed.He just simply found a place to flourish at.

No, you didn't practically ask the thief to come by creating binding laws that prevent society from regulating itself in a way that would make being a drug cartel or street gang an incredibly profitable thing. Your metaphor is shit, absolute shit.

So think about this... Miami, Los Angeles, New York city, Boston.... All these places are big and have large areas of gangs and yet in the middle of the united states.... Arkansas:

Well duh, most drugs are imported via water, just like Moroccan hash is in Spain.

This thread makes some good points. But my question is at what point along the road of history will we look back and realize the board shifts in clockwork motion and the past returns as the forcast of the future. Jews had no internet. The whispers started in the temple and we know where that story can lead but back to today while WE live the daily headlines it will be in our best intrist to remeber not only natzi Germany but all the peices that played there part to take it there. We are playing the same game. And to the end the streets hold the true power but the concsept of power.... Absoulte power has but one end and we will fight to defend every inch. Too bad the war today is fought in your heads.. And the streets cry no more.

So, are you saying that gangs only exist in large metropolitan areas?
Trust me they don't We have had gang problems here for quite some time now.
There was a 60 minute or 20/20 show about the gang violence in Little Rock a few years back.

it was called "Bangin' in Little Rock" it was made in 94' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0272104/
I was a senior in high school and delt with gang shit at my school daily. alot of the people in that film went to my school or were from that neighborhood.
it's a shame really. that neighboorhood used to be one of the most beautiful in little rock in the 50's. now it's total shit.

Evictions, fake cops raise questions about Arkansas curfew
Much is being made of a virtual declaration of martial law in a small town in Arkansas -- and of the ACLU's predictable, and commendable, objection to the same. Largely unnoticed, though, is the troubling fact that the "state of emergency" may create an opportunity for local criminals.
Invoking an ordinance relating to civil emergencies in response to a surge of violent crime in parts of the town, Mayor James Valley of Helena-West Helena, Arkansas, imposed an all-day curfew, with "[n]o loitering, standing or 'hanging-out'” permitted.
Less well-covered is the fact that the text of the order, available at Mayor Valley's blog, also allows for forcible evictions of people from homes where crimes have been reported.
The Code Enforcement Department has been directed to pursue Nuisance Abatement (Evictions) for those persons residing in homes, in the affected areas, where at least three (3) criminal violations have occurred within the most recent time period allowed to be considered by law.
People aren't just being driven from the streets -- they're also being tossed from their dwellings as local officials suspend fundamental rights in the name of law and order.
Local police are responsible for enforcing the curfew, of course. The Associated Press reported, "Thursday night, 18 to 20 police officers carrying M-16 rifles, shotguns and night-vision scopes patrolled the "curfew zone." They arrested about eight people and confiscated drugs and loaded weapons."
That's disturbing news all by itself. The cops have been given carte blanche to run roughshod over an already troubled neighborhood -- even angels would have difficulty wielding such power without trampling people's rights, and police are people, not angels.
But there's reason to wonder if some of the uniformed enforcers wandering the streets of that unfortunate community are actually opportunists. Just last month, The Daily World, the local newspaper, warned that uniforms had been stolen during a break-in at an officer's home.
“Unless you know who the person is it is a good idea to find out who’s outside before opening your door to just anyone,” said Col. Fred Fielder of the Helena-West Helena Police Department.
A state of emergency that empowers police is quite an opportunity for anybody nervy enough to simply pretend to be a police officer. It's bad enough to open your door to a government official who wants to force you from your home. It's worse to open your door and discover that those officials you have good reason to fear have simply handed a weapon to the freelance thugs.

So what was that shit about a terror alet in Texas? I saw the year was a tad bit aways from 2009, I don't understand why that was put on here.I live in Little Rock and haven't herd anything about this mock martial law,Fuckin crazy.Maybe there not talkin about it so like someone said earlier,people won't riot.I know we got some bad towns here but pigs patroling naiborhoods with night vision goggles and assalt rifes,what the fuck.I'm not sure If I can think of a better way to stop the violence,but maybe they should have steped up the police numbers in that area first.
