RINGLING (AP) — The entire police force in Ringling has resigned and the mayor, vice mayor and city attorney are quitting as well.

Mayor Jerry Reid says his resignation isn’t effective until he puts it in writing but he blames part of the dispute on what he calls a “dope problem” in the southern Oklahoma town.

Reid says “special interest groups” are upset that there were too many patrolmen on the streets and some are worried because they may have something to hide.

Phone calls to council members Terry Blackwell and Mary Elliot went unanswered today and there was no listing for the third council member, Tony Bortz.

A message left at Ringling City Hall was not immediately returned.

The Jefferson County sheriff’s office will take over patrol duties until a more permanent solution is found.

That’s fucking awesome. It’s not just a win for anarchists (who I think of as unenlightened libertarians) but for individualists (specifically, druggies).
