Graffiti, Vandalism, Filth, Panhandling And PREDATORY TOWING In Ashville, South Carolina

Asheville, North Carolina wants to attract tourists, so they're having a meeting to talk about some negative things that might drive tourists away...

Their list of civic concerns discussed in this article, click here, made my day: Graffiti. Vandalism. Filth. Panhandling. And Predatory Towing.

Asheville needs to work on the listing order a little more, though. Which one of these things costs tourists the most? Which one makes a visitor to the city vow, "I'll never go there again?" Yup, predatory towing.

List predatory towing FIRST, I say.

As with substance addiction, admitting you have a problem is the first step toward getting help. I sure hope Asheville manages to lick its predatory towing habit.

(Naked, obese cherubs? Nah...not really an issue for most folks)
