The Superlative Suppository

The true spirit of drug/vice policy is alive and well in Fort Wayne Beach Florida. It is reported that a good deal of drug dealing and prostitution takes place under a large oak tree there and they have gone up the mountain to consult the drug war gods about how to solve this problem. Thus sayith the Drug Lord, cut it down:

Okaloosa County sheriff's deputies think they have found a solution for getting rid of drug dealers and prostitutes who congregate under a giant oak tree: chop it down.
The sheriff's office is seeking permission to have the tree removed from a county right of way on Cypress Street.

The people that live on the street seem to think that the tree has some mystical evil about it and should be destroyed even though they know it will not stop the drug trade:

Community activist Audrey Williams said it is unlikely cutting down the tree will solve the drug problem, but she still wants it gone.

"As long as they can hang out under the tree and do their dirty deeds we won't get any change," Williams said.

Cypress Street resident Shelby Brown plans to move if the tree stays.

"If there's a fight on this street, that's where it starts," Brown said. "As long as the tree's there, I'll do it."

Damn evil tree! Burn it I say!
