Link of the Day--The Police in Downtown Albuquerque

Be sure to read Maggie's post on the police presence of downtown Albuquerque. This city is going through a period of rapid change and the police, perhaps not surprisingly, are not responding well to this. They still have the mentality that the young people of Albuquerque are a menace to be repressed as opposed to a diverse group of citizens that each bring something different to the social fabric of downtown, usually good and occasionally bad.

Anyway, it's a fine post so read it.
