I Say Take Their Cars

Jersey City Councilman Steve Fulop says that the cops should seize the cars of people soliciting prostitutes and drugs.

I think it's a great idea - last time the police did this, they tripled their revenue from seized cars. Hey, whatever makes the police cheaper for us as tax-payers is good.

I mean, I don't usually side with punishing people more, but, hey - if you want your drugs or sex, get it on foot. I guess that makes the sex thing a little harder, but, eh, so be it.

Police chief Tom Coney has a point, too: Where do we put the cars?
