It seems that Mesquite has become quite a cesspool. But considering that their main source of income is totally immoral, I guess that is to be expected. But it is too bad when their sewage overflows and ends up here, as was recently the case in a drug bust.
Frances, if it wasn’t for our acceptance of reveling Utah visitors, basking in the freedoms denied in their home state, Mesquite would be a harbor of quiescent serenity.
The majority of the funds for that “immoral income” comes from Washington County.
Francis,
The really funny thing about Mesquite and cesspools…most…not all…but most of the time they have Utah drivers licenses….interesting isn’t it?
