Arkansas – In one of our nation’s poorest neighborhoods the local law enforcement has moved to drastic measures to help curb the high crime rate: a 24-hour curfew. This area boasts problems like drug violence and many residents sleep on the floor of their homes to avoid stray bullets.
No one has been arrested for curfew violation but many have been questioned leading to felony arrests. While some may consider the curfew unconstitutional, the local authorities believe that the safety of the residents in the area outweighs the infringement.
