Knuth said his constituents are “ropeable” about two issues: juvenile crime and speeding fines.

I get that the Katters have youth crime as one of the biggest topics they run on (I also suspect they don't have any sustainable plans to address it). But how much youth crime can there possibly be in a podunk town of 811 people? Don't conflate two distinct topics to score political points.

"Youth crime" is code for "brown kids", right?
