Marfa has decided to do away with their Police Force.
Dissension caused a rift.It will be patrolled by the local Sheriffs.
Yes those were the local jails,until recently[I think]
It has become an artsy place,with the upper regions of the country,I.E.,Liberal Arts,etc.,who want to turn it into NYC type of style.
GBLT soon to follow.
I used to enjoy a cup of Java there.
Now it is used as a drug intervention stop.
The Police do a good job as best they can.

And their job is difficult.

Back in the 60’s we played the Marfa Mustangs (I think that was their team) and little towns all in West Texas. We played Kerrville, Alpine, Ft. Stockton, Marfa, Sanderson, and one team from El Paso which was 350 miles from Del Rio. Marfa was the most fun because we would call them Marfadites across the line of scrimmage and just about get into a fist fight every down. That was back in the old days when alcohol was the biggest drug and fighting with fists was a sport.
