In your July 4 editorial you characterized “hardcore alcoholics” as “riff-raff on the downtown streets.”
If you had referred to them as chronic inebriates, we might have been able to receive government funding for an elite inebriates hockey league.
Imagine the Suave Schadenfreudes, the Mighty Muditas, the Happy Angsters and the Wretched Riff-Ratts with the editor of the Yukon News as the Riff-Raffs coach.
