I cannot vote for someone who thinks marijuana somehow causes lung cancer. There are so many medical benefits to consuming marijuana. To somehow say marijuana is a "gateway" drug is simply ridiculous. Alcohol consumption is far worse than marijuana consumption. Marijuana is something that could really help patients that get chemotherapy. My vote is no.   more ›

New Police Ordinance Combats Fighting, Particularly on School Property

The Plainfield Village Board also adopted a new mob action ordinance; both give cops new "tools" to deter potential crime and fill voids where state law may not be enough.

Pick a fight in Plainfield at your own peril. If you're convicted, you'll be paying a minimum fine of $250 under an ordinance approved Monday by the Plainfield Village Board. The new regulation applies to situations in which Plainfield police break up a brawl in which they are unable to determine who instigated the fight or it appears both parties were equally involved. While the local ordinance will apply to anyone involved in a fight, it was drafted in particular as a way of deterring fights that occur on Plainfield School District 202 property, Police Chief John Konopek said. "It just adds another tool to an officer's toolbox," he said. "If we can't identify who threw the first punch or who the aggressor was, this addresses that type of…

I am not sure what to make of the smile on Keith's shot. At first I thought, if you are going to have a mug shot make it a good one. But then, a large smile with domestic battery charges? It makes me wonder if the charges are totally bogus or if he is just in need of counseling. haha   more ›
