This is absolute foolishness wasting taxpayer's dollars on this, especially at this time of year when the money could go to good Christmas causes like our veterans. 

I take my grand kids in the car and when en-route for ice cream  I teach them how bad drugs are and the type of people involved by driving them through the scummy areas of town. We play a game called spot the looser and the kids point out the druggies. It can be a lot of fun especially when a couple of them are beating on each other and of course we have names for the really ignorant ones. One we call nasty-man and he always screams when you are stopped at the light and you ignore his "Need money for Food sign". The other day he was past out on someones lawn and my granddaughter asked, "Grandpa is nasty-man dead?" I replied, "You can only hope sweetie". The kids howled.  

They will grow up okay!
