I certainly is NOT a matter of "passing the buck" to Fairbanks or Anchorage or society at large, banishment, ostracism, and excommunication have been used since pre-historic times to eliminate behavior destructive to a society. If all ethnic groups, down to the faqmily unit banished gang bangers, druggies, and alcoholics it just might  wake them up...or at least remove them from the family and prevent further destruction.
