What appears to be happening is we have a lot of people hooked on drugs in Anchorage and they are out stealing to pay for their habit.   Making matters worst we as a community celebrate the drug culture in Anchorage. We think it's wonderful that pot shops are opening everywhere . Even local politicians are getting in on the action to make bucks as well.  When we have no one standing up and saying drug use is bad , how can we hope for or expect any other results ? Adults are teaching they're kids pot use is cool.   Plus as a country more are getting addicted to alcohol .  The perfect storm for these problems is right here in Anchorage.
