A public library in California has shut its doors following months of rampant drug use, robberies and even public sex between the bookshelves as Golden State cities are held hostage by criminals. The Contra Costa County Library’s Antioch Branch that it made the decision to close beginning on Saturday until further notice as the “repeated dangerous incidents” have threatened the safety of its patrons. “During the closure, the Library will be working to implement further security measures so we can reopen as soon as possible,” the library service said. A library spokesperson told KTVU that this dire situation goes beyond typical bad library behavior like talking too loud, failing to return books on time or even vandalism and theft

That's a shame, but what happens when the public refuses to step up and demand a stop to activity like this. You get what you allow.

So, the very thing progressives said wouldn't come true have. Check.
Remember when they wanted a totally open society? Free to do everything under the Sun with impunity? Well, they've rocketed past impunity into anarchy.

Not living there, I don't really know the facts. At face value, sounds like the right decision. Interesting that this story is run by the New York Post though. Didn't know they had a reporter 3,000+ miles away hot on the County Library beat...

You don't have to have a reporter on site...the libraries have websites and they report openings, closings and other information. From there it's easy to find out what is going on.
