Golly, gee-whiz! That's great! I often wonder, GI's, among others seem to have lots of problems with cab drivers… I wonder if the cab drivers ever do anything to precipitate this outpouring of frustrated anger.

The lockdown at least on the surface seems a bit extreme especially since you don't hear much of anything happening down in Kunsan. Is one incident worth punishing everyone on the base for?

Yepâ€¦ I sound like a broken recordâ€¦

â€¦but when you chase everyone out of the GI bar districts where there is less interaction with the locals and any problem can be quickly forgotten with restitution, you have to expect these problems to take place on a larger and more public scale.

Is there any benefit for USFK to trade off reduced paperwork incidents in the bar districts in exchange for major incidents in the newspaper?

Must beâ€¦ they keep the policy.

Lockdowns just move the violence on baseâ€¦ where sexual assaults go up in proportion to frustration, hopelessness and low morale.

I wish somebody would tell me I am completely wrong, and show me why, so I could shut up about this.
