Let's see them station squad cars outside the entrance of the country club and make the enforcement applicable to everyone, not just those on Main street!
On Downtown Janesville plan appears to be victim of Great Recession

The death of the Downtown Plan is a victim of "Lack of vision" not the recession! Another study, another bunch of money and the same result. Sounds a bit like insanity doesn't it???

The Gazette should be ashamed of being used over and over again by Jim Grafft. How many articles will we see on the Monterey Hotel before any "development" work is really done??? The Monterey Hotel has become the symbol of downtown development...

The only way the children could get hurt is if they get caught in the crossfire as the police, firefighters and National Guard fight it out with the radical teachers. What happens to police and fire fighters after the unrest is squashed? Will they then be added to the list or permanently exempted?
So the quality of education under the new administration will increase or decrease? Oh, who cares, were saving money!!!

HEMP!!!
Hemp is a very renewable resource and completely untapped. Hemp has been part of modern society for at least 5000 years and until 1936 hemp had been the source plant for petro-chemical, paper and yes, hemp oil. Had it been for Henry Ford his Model A would have been powered by a hemp-based fuel. Had it been a million barrels of hemp oil dumped in the Gulf there would have only been a bunch of happy fish, no ecological damage!
If we are going to be illogical and hypocritical on legalizing cannabis, let's not be stupid and ignore the only new renewable solution we have for fuel, paper, clothing and taxes, yes taxes.
Taxes raised by legalizing cannabis (hemp THC cousin) could be funneled directly into local school districts as a new source of tax revenue; currently that money is funneled into organized crime!
AMERICA- We have come face-to-face with our own hypocracy, again! End the prohibition of all hemp and cannibis, fastrack hemp cultivation, product production, ethanol development and the medicinal benefits of cannabis. Stop filling our prison systems with people who are not any more a criminal than those caught in the days of alcohol prohibition at the local Speak Easy.
Re-Legalize Cannibis & Hemp- It makes great sense!!!

Dear Alcohol,
You almost destroyed my parent's marriage and my normal life. My Mom & Dad turned into different people when the use you and they used you a lot! My Uncle used to be just like them and many times they would all drink together and fights would break out. When they were not drunk they loved each other, but when they drank they would fight. My Uncle left one night and ran into a car full of kids coming back from a basketball game. Thankfully they all lived but it scared him into not drinking. He smokes pot now, but he's nice again and fun to talk to. He never acts mean any more and he helped my parents to quit drinking too. When I get to be an adult I WILL not use alcohol, I've lived through the Hell of what it can do to a loving family. My Uncle told me that I shouldn't do any of it until I'm an adult, I told him thanks for changing and helping my family act civil again...

He's a predator cop who will ride your bumper unti he gets his probable cause. My guess is that if your downtown and had 3-4 drinks you are his catch. That sounds great until you realize that's most people who go to a bar downtown! These kind of cops are the kind who don't need a lot of reason; just being out that late makes you a suspect and the rest he can provide with his own imagination.
What's the solution? Everyone stay away from downtown bars or become another notch on his ticket book!!!

Da Bears!!! Not saying they're Super Bowl quality or the best in the NFL, but they are the champs of the North and the Packers are not.
I cheered for the Pack when they went to the first Super Bowl with Brett, Reggie. I hope some of my Packer-fan friends have enough respect to do the same is they don't make the playoffs. Go Bears!!!
