Craig Smith enjoys the way reporting can be a passport to interesting experiences.
TUCSON, Ariz. — It’ll be less than a month before we know who voters will chose for Tucson Mayor. When we talked with the various candidates for Mayor this week, most of them talked about using the powers of the City of Tucson to deal with various thorny city issues. When we talked with Libertarian candidate Arthur Kerschen, he talked about how he thinks some things are just none of the city’s business.
He thinks more prosecution of relatively small crimes like shoplifting would deter more serious crime.KGUN9 Reporter Craig Smith asked: “Silly things. In political terms those are fighting words. What are some of those things?” Kerschen says the city’s encouraging homelessness, and closing productive businesses when it buys motels to house homeless people. He thinks churches and charities should operate the shelters and work to discourage drug use in those shelters.
