Lets see, your issue is with motorcyclists. The article you state says...

Just before 2 a.m. Sgt. P.R. Dowd noticed a Toyota Corolla headed east making a grinding noise and changing lanes without using a signal. The Corolla’s driver pulled in at a rest area, again without signaling, according to court documents, and Sgt. Dowd followed.


Im pretty sure Toyota doesnt make motorcycles. If you think this makes your point, your an even bigger idiot than I thought. do these communities have drugs, yes. do most all communities have drugs, even the upscale ones, YES.

Its everywhere. it stupidity that links it to riding a motorcycle.report abuse

Below are two distinct sets of communities in Massachusetts. Which set of communities does Skowhegan want to belong to in Maine's future? The wealthy,family communities, or the Lowell,Revere, Brockton set of communities??

Set A
Wealthy communities in Massachusetts,
everyone wants to move there,raise a family:
Dover
Wellesley
Weston
Lincoln
Situate
Cohasset
Sherborn


Set B
Poor,crime ridden communities in Massachusetts,
everyone wants to move out,undesirable places to raise a family:
Revere
Brockton
New Bedford
Lawrence
Lowell
Lynn
Chicoppe


Revere,Brockton,New Bedford,Lawrence,Lowell,Lynn,Chicoppe are the type of communities that would hold a motorcycle parade.


If you want to become a poor,crime ridden undesirable community to raise a family,do what the Lynn and Lowell communities would do.

If you want to become a wealthy community, a desirable place to raise a family,do what the Dover and Wellesley communities would do, or would not doreport abuse

"reader123 of Skowhegan..you do see the news reports where the folks from Mass, Conn, NY etc get busted in their cars trafficing drugs into/through the state"


--Sure do. Massachusetts State Police busted this Skowhegan Maine resident(see below) just 5 days ago for trying to bring a shipment of crack cocaine to though Massachusetts into your community. You guys got crack cocaine users in Skowhegan now,Surprised even me:

Michael McMillion, 28, of Skowhegan, Maine, and Roger Burke, 27, of Libern, Ga., were arrested and charged with trafficking cocaine

I think your head is up something else. Drugs do come in on bikes. But they also come in with trucks, cars, trains, snowmobiles and lots of other ways over state borders and illegal crossings. If we follow your logic, that its all to do with motorcyclists, we shouldnt have a problem 6 months out of the year. Dont see many bikes on the road from November to April. but you do see the news reports where the folks from Mass, Conn, NY etc get busted in their cars trafficing drugs into/through the state.report abuse
