Blow it out your ***. Advance Indiana? Lol...we could not be anymore backwards if we tried. We are a punchline on late night TV at best.
In this town I live in alone, the mayor made a mockery of the police dept. that pulled him over and knew he was drunk. His son, a reserve officer was caught with 25 pictures of a 14 year old girl on his cell phone. He did no jail time, and does not have to register as the sex offender he is.
My bi-racial daughter was abued all through school. She was actually chased down the road by a truckload of redneck idiots. There were witnesses, but nothing happened. Yep....Indiana is great alright...if you know the right people. Stupid republican leaders with no heart, and lots of racism....HOME OF THE KLAN.

Christine Scales is a saint. I don't even think she keeps her salary. I think she uses it for charity.

This is sad. People should write to Christine to offer her our moral support and thank her for standing on principle.

I've run into Ms. Scales at a couple of North side public events over the years and have corresponded with her. She seems to be genuinely conscientious, trying to do the right thing even when the choices aren't easy (and I don't agree with every one of them). However, I'd take her in a heartbeat instead of MY councilman: Ryan Vaughn. What on Jupiter's far moon is the difference between Monroe Gray's conflict of interests and Vaughn's except Vaughn's elicits less turmoil and he seems more unabashed about it? It's a public shame to have any ideological similarity to a Republican in this county. Moe, Larry, and Curly are taking notes in the hereafter from Johns, Vaughn, and Ballard.

Tell me we'll have a Libertarian (a real one- Please) running for mayor. I've definitely had enough of the Barnes & Thornburg party and would not like to vote for the Baker & Daniels party. To hell with Shane- Come back, Fred Peterson! Come back!

Wanna guess how the Star treats the retaliation against Scales by Vaughn?

a. A legitimate news story
b. A blurb in Behind Closed Doors
c. Ignore it completely.

I'm guessing "b," though "c" is a possibility. Of course, for most newspapers it would be a slam dunk "a."

I wish one of us was the Marion County Prosecutor of the U.S. Attorney assigned to Marion County. Would we ever use Christine O'Donnell's broom and go after those who violate their public trust!!!

Please make it stop.
