#1 When Augusta Ga as a small town of about 31,000+/- back in May 11th, 1970 Augusta Ga. It had a Riot that that was driven totally based on a Black Radical group's deliberate misinformation.

So why the history lesson, and what does it have to do with this song?

As the Rioters started moving to the outskirts of Augusta to loot bigger stores, it resulted in over 100+ persons/rioters being reported missing in the coming days.

Rumor has it that the Love Lane dirt road Swamp area ate well.

BTW: Wikipedia has a lot of its data (not facts) wrong. But whoever wrote it made sure it read LSD politically correct .

#2 The demise of cities and overall population growth has bloated many small towns into mini-cities. The are still small towns where everyone knows each other, but Mayberry type situations are less normal than in the 70s. BLM placards were present in several 20 to 50k Ohio municipalities during the Summer of Love that I observed , but there was no violence or property destruction. Local liberal youths commuted from Kent to Akron and Cleveland for their rioting options.

#3 ^ Arcata, CA: population 18,000+. Most of the downtown businesses also have the BLM signs up in the windows as protection against the mobs from the local state university. There's no violence as the population has been successfully subjugated.

#4 I remember having a laugh, decades ago and two thousand miles from Arcata, at a song on a punk compilation. Achieved running joke status for a awhile. Refrain: "Arcata police, get off the f-cking streets!"

#5 We don't have BLM in my little 831 pop town.
We do have holiday parades, car shows and the high school track team girls do a fine bikini car wash.
The Chief of Police is generally accessible during lunch at the local Quik-Mart gas station and post office. The Volunteer FD meets monthly for a budget review and public BBQ.
